Two Remarks on the Reasonableness of Customer Requirements for Balancing Machine Manufacturers

Introduction Over the past one and a half years, our company has received more than 30 inquiries regarding the purchase of various types of balancing machines. An analysis of the Technical Specifications attached to these inquiries reveals that most include a number of characteristics that significantly impact the production timelines and costs of the machines and also minimize the list of potential suppliers. Among these, two requirements stand out: The requirement to ensure a specific residual imbalance, which should not exceed 0.1 g*mm/kg (µm). The requirement to include the balancing machine in the Register of Measuring Instruments. Let’s analyze the Read more…

Dynamic balancing of the centrifuge.

Prevention is better than cure: How regular centrifuge balancing helps avoid costly breakdowns

Centrifuges are indispensable equipment in many industries, from medicine to the chemical industry. They are used to separate liquid mixtures based on the density difference of the components. However, like any rotating equipment, centrifuges are prone to vibration, which can lead to a number of problems. What is Vibration? Vibration is the oscillatory motion that occurs when the rotor of a centrifuge rotates. It can be caused by various factors, such as: Rotor imbalance: uneven distribution of mass across the rotor. Rotor deformations: bends, warps. Bearing play: wear, improper installation. Asymmetry of rotor elements: improper shape, hole placement. External influences: Read more…

Dynamic Balancing of Flail Mower and Forestry Mulcher Rotors

In this article, we will explain the process of balancing the rotors of flail mowers and forestry mulchers in simple terms. We will answer frequently asked questions and provide several useful tips. Let’s start by understanding what vibration is, its dangers, what balancing is, why it’s necessary, and how it can be done independently. Rotor balancing is the process of adjusting the mass distribution of the rotor to reduce or eliminate vibrations that occur during its rotation. Properly performed balancing extends the life of the mechanism, reduces noise and vibration, and prevents premature wear of bearings and other machine components. Read more…
