Seamless Service in Balancing Machines

The balancing process in horizontal balancing machines consists of a series of steps that are not as complex as the part itself but require a great deal of attention. First, the rotor to be balanced is correctly and securely placed on the machine's bearings using appropriate mounting fixtures and adapters. This step is key to an accurate measurement because the part must be supported in the machine just as it is in its actual operating conditions.

After the part is secured to the machine, the rotor begins to spin. The machine's sensitive sensors detect the vibrations and forces that occur during rotation. This data is analyzed by the machine's advanced software to precisely determine the amount and angle of unbalance in the two planes of the rotor. This information clearly shows the operator how much weight needs to be added or removed and at what point. Once the correction is complete, the part is spun again to check the residual unbalance. This cycle continues until the part falls within the tolerances specified by international standards like ISO 21940. This process ensures the part operates more efficiently and has a longer service life.

Balancing adjustment is a critical process that makes a part more stable by correcting its mass unbalance. This procedure consists of two main stages: measurement and correction. First, the part to be balanced is placed on a balancing machine and rotated. The machine's sensitive sensors detect the vibrations that occur during the part's rotation and use this data to calculate the exact amount of unbalance (in weight) and its angular position. This stage is vital for determining where and how much unbalance is present in the part.

After the measurement stage, the correction stage begins. In this stage, one of two main methods is used to correct the unbalance: adding weight or removing weight. Based on the calculated data, an appropriate weight is either added directly opposite the area of unbalance (e.g., with welding, bolts, or adhesive) or material is removed from the area of unbalance (e.g., with drilling or milling). This process minimizes vibrations by bringing the part's center of gravity into alignment with its axis of rotation. After the correction is completed, the part is tested again, and this cycle is repeated until the residual unbalance falls to within acceptable tolerance levels. Advanced software like iBalancer, used by MBS Balans Sanayi, makes this process faster and more precise.

Choosing a balancing machine's capacity is a critical decision for the efficiency and safety of your work. This choice directly depends on the weight and dimensions of the parts you will be balancing. If you are working on small, delicate parts, a lower-capacity machine will be sufficient. However, if you need to balance large and heavy rotors, shafts, or turbine parts, you should consider machines with capacities of 1-5000 kg or higher. Thanks to the wide range we offer at MBS Balans Sanayi, you can find a solution to suit every weight and size requirement. It's important to keep in mind that the stated capacity of the machine may not offer the same accuracy across all weight and speed ranges. Therefore, the weight of your heaviest part and the desired accuracy should guide you in determining the right capacity.

Another important factor to consider when choosing capacity is your production volume. If you are a mass-production company, CNC-controlled balancing machines, which minimize manual intervention and enable fast processing, will maximize your productivity. If you're balancing parts of various sizes and weights, selecting your machine's capacity based on your largest part will also meet your future needs. This way, you can easily handle multiple jobs with a single machine. MBS Balans Sanayi experts are ready to help you select the machine with the most suitable capacity by analyzing your specific needs. Choosing the right capacity is a smart investment that supports not only your current needs but also your future growth goals.

Choosing the right MBS Balans Sanayi machine for your balancing application directly impacts the efficiency and quality of your production processes. To make the right decision, you must first clearly define your needs. The right machine depends on the type of balancing task you're performing, the size and weight of the parts, the level of precision you need to achieve, and your production volume. For example, if you have small disc-shaped parts, vertical balancing machines are ideal. If you need to balance long, cylindrical, and heavy shafts, horizontal balancing machines offer a more suitable solution. The wide range of machines we offer at MBS Balans Sanayi are designed to meet these diverse needs, and each machine type serves a specific purpose.

Factors such as budget, production capacity, and adjustment method also play a decisive role in machine selection. For example, our turbo balancing machines provide the most accurate results for components such as turbochargers or turbines that require high precision. We also have shaft balancing machines specifically designed for large and heavy shafts. Remember, the most expensive machine is not always the most accurate. The key is to find the right solution that will meet the specific requirements of your operation, ensure long-term efficiency, and provide a significant return on your investment. Our expert team is ready to analyze your needs and guide you in selecting the most suitable MBS Balans Industry machine.

Using a balancing machine is a meticulous process that needs to be followed precisely to eliminate vibrations from rotating parts. To ensure the machine operates correctly and you get the best results, you should follow these steps:

1. Part Preparation and Mounting: First, the part to be balanced is cleaned and mounted correctly onto the machine using appropriate adapters. It is critical that the part is stable during the balancing process and that the vibration sensors are placed with precision.

2. Unbalance Measurement: Once the part is ready, the machine is started. The machine's sensitive sensors measure the vibrations that occur during rotation and transmit this data to the control unit. The software in the control unit calculates the exact amount of unbalance (e.g., in grams) and its angle. This data is clearly displayed on the machine's screen.

3. Correction Process: Based on the data obtained, a correction is made to eliminate the unbalance. This is done either by adding weight directly opposite the unbalance (via welding, bolts, etc.) or by removing material from the area of unbalance (via drilling, milling, etc.). The method used depends on the type of part and the amount of unbalance.

4. Verification and Repetition: After the correction is complete, the part is run again, and the residual unbalance is measured. This cycle is repeated until the part's vibration levels fall to within acceptable tolerance values. Modern balancing machines offer algorithms and user-friendly interfaces that speed up this process. MBS Balans Sanayi's software optimizes this procedure, ensuring you get accurate results at every step.

Using a balancing machine is more than just a technical task; it's the most important way to ensure the machine operates safely and efficiently.

Balancing machines are sophisticated systems that operate by detecting vibrations caused by mass imbalance in a rotating part. Their basic operating principle is based on measuring the centrifugal force generated when a part rotates around its axis of rotation. If the part is unbalanced, this force creates vibrations on the bearings. The machine's sensitive sensors (transducers) detect these vibrations and send them to the control unit as an electrical signal. These signals are synchronized with the part's rotation speed and angle, and the exact amount of imbalance (in terms of weight) and its angular position are calculated.

This obtained data provides guidance for correcting the part's imbalance. Based on the information displayed on the screen, the operator applies one of the following methods: adding weight (e.g., by welding or bolting) or removing weight (e.g., by drilling or milling) to the area directly opposite the imbalance. After this process, the part is rotated again to check the remaining imbalance. This cycle continues until the vibrations fall within an acceptable tolerance level. The advanced software we use at MBS Balans Sanayi automates this process, making it both faster and more precise.

Dynamic balancing machines are basically divided into two main categories based on their bearing systems: soft-bearing and hard-bearing machines. This classification determines how the machine measures unbalance and which types of applications it is best suited for. Soft-bearing balancing machines have a flexible structure at the support points where the rotor is mounted. This flexibility allows them to measure the amplitude of vibrations caused by unbalance. These types of machines generally operate with high precision at lower speeds and are particularly ideal for delicate rotors. While soft-bearing machines can be more complex to install and calibrate, they offer exceptional accuracy in certain frequency ranges.

On the other hand, hard-bearing balancing machines use a rigid, or rather inflexible, structure at the support points where the rotor is mounted. These machines work by measuring the force created by unbalance on the bearings. Their strong and durable construction makes them preferred in industrial environments. Hard-bearing machines can accommodate a wider range of rotor weights and sizes and can be quickly adjusted for different rotors without requiring calibration. This makes them extremely efficient in mass production and when balancing various parts. At MBS Balans Sanayi, we offer both soft- and hard-bearing solutions tailored to our customers' needs and guarantee the highest performance using the latest versions of both technologies. The type of machine that's right for you depends on the characteristics of the parts you'll be balancing and your production requirements.
