Any rotating part can experience an unbalance related problem. This is the result of an uneven distribution of mass around a part’s axis of rotation. In other words, unbalance occurs when a rotating part’s center of mass or its inertia axis, is no longer aligned with the part’s center of rotation or its geometric axis. This causes the rotor or rotating component to wobble.

Proper rotor balancing is critical for preventing vibration and noise within a system, ensuring safe operation, and improving the efficiency and the life of the machine. An experienced balancing services provider will be able to accurately assess how much unbalance exists in a rotor, where the unbalance is located, and how best to rectify it.

Despite its apparent simplicity, precisely balancing a rotor requires a subtle, yet absolute, expertise. Not all providers are capable of providing the same quality of services and consistency. If you don’t know exactly what to look for when searching for the right balancing partner, you can miss out on valuable services, or worse, risk both the value of your investment and the safety of your facility and staff
