Dynamic balancing involves the adjustment of an object’s balance by adding or removing weight. Firstly, we have to determine the components' unbalance. We calculate this whilst it’s rotating at a predetermined speed. The information from this process gives insight into the amount of weight required to counterbalance areas that are either too light or too heavy.
Reducing vibration through dynamic balancing also ensures the machine is running smoothly, with reduced noise. This inevitably prevents premature system failure. A component is only in balance once the rotation does not produce any centrifugal force or couple unbalance as a result.
Single Plane
We can perform Dynamic balancing on components of a variety of shapes and sizes. Single plane dynamic balancing is normally carried out on relatively low speed and narrow disks, where the width is less than 30% of the diameter.
Multi plane
Dynamic balancing (multi plane) is primarily performed on components rotating at higher speeds, where the width is more than 30% of the diameter. We balance long and high speed rotors (including flexible rotors) using more than two correction positions.
