Balanset-1A Rotor Balancing Device: A Comprehensive Guide

The Balanset-1A rotor balancing device is a state-of-the-art solution for ensuring the optimal performance of rotating machinery. Designed by Vibromera, this equipment is essential for industries that rely on the efficiency and reliability of their machinery. With a price of €1751, the Balanset-1A is equipped with advanced features that make it indispensable for any maintenance team.

Components of the Balanset-1A
The Balanset-1A comes with a comprehensive set of components to facilitate effective rotor balancing:

  • 2 Vibro-converters
  • 1 Phase angle sensor (laser tachometer)
  • 1 Measuring block (Balanset device)
  • 1 Magnetic stand
  • 1 Electronic scale
  • 1 Transport case
  • Software on a flash drive

Importance of Rotor Balancing
Balancing is crucial for all technically sound mechanisms that are securely mounted in their designated locations. Before balancing, any mechanism showing signs of wear or damage must be repaired and properly reinstalled. Additionally, the rotor must be cleaned thoroughly to remove any contaminants that could interfere with the balancing process.

Procedure for Balancing with Balanset-1A
The process of balancing rotors with the Balanset-1A involves several key stages:

1. Equipment Preparation
Begin by installing vibration sensors perpendicular to the rotor’s axis of rotation. The laser tachometer should be mounted on the magnetic stand, aimed at a reflective tape on the pulley. Connect the sensors to the device and the Balanset-1A to a laptop via USB. Launch the Balanset software and select the two-plane balancing mode.

2. Initial Vibration Measurement
Before balancing, weigh the test weight and record its mass and installation radius. Start the rotor and measure the initial vibration level to establish the amplitude and phase of the existing imbalance.

3. Balancing in the First Plane
Install the test weight in the first balancing plane corresponding to the first sensor’s location. Restart the rotor and measure the vibration level again. A change in amplitude or phase of at least 20% indicates that the imbalance has been partially corrected.

4. Balancing in the Second Plane
Move the test weight to the second plane where the second sensor is located. Run the rotor and take another measurement. These results will enable the software to calculate the exact position and weight of the corrective weights needed.

5. Correcting the Imbalance
Based on the collected data, the Balanset software will recommend corrective weights and angles for both balancing planes. Remove the test weight, prepare the corrective weights as per the software’s suggestions, and install them at the specified angles in the direction of the rotor’s rotation from the initial test weight position.

6. Verification and Completion
Finally, restart the rotor for a final verification of the balancing process. If the vibration levels have decreased to acceptable levels, the process is complete. If further corrections are necessary, the software will indicate where and how much additional weight to place.

How Often Should Wheel Balancing Be Done?
Regular wheel balancing is crucial for maintaining vehicle performance and safety. It is recommended to perform wheel balancing every 5,000 to 6,000 miles, or whenever tire rotation occurs, as well as after any impact or damage to the wheels. Properly balanced wheels improve tire lifespan, enhance fuel efficiency, and provide a smoother ride.

Conclusion
The Balanset-1A rotor balancing device is an essential tool for industries that depend on the efficient operation of rotating machinery. By following the proper procedures and ensuring regular maintenance, businesses can significantly reduce downtime and operational costs. Investing in a Balanset-1A not only enhances productivity but also extends the lifespan of critical equipment.
