How to Use a Balancing 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:
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
