How to Adjust Balance?

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.
