Balance Systems is a world leader in balancing machines for rotating components and process control systems for machine tools. Attaining perfect balance for rotating components in the automotive industry is critical for the performance of any rotating parts. Balance Systems caters for every facet of the automotive industry with high-performance balancing machines for electric motors, alternator rotors, brushless rotors, fans, electric fans, brake disks, drums, clutches, turbines, flywheels, shafts, pumps, wheels, pulleys, propellers, couplings, spindles and more.
Balancing Machines are advanced technological solutions that enable users to eliminate vibration in moving components by providing the perfect balance to improve the life and performance of electrical, mechanical and electromechanical systems within a vehicle. Vibration and noise are typically caused by the unbalance present in the rotating parts. To eradicate this phenomenon, each rotating element must be balanced dynamically through a balancing machine during the productive process phase.
In electrical machines, rotor balancing is often necessary, as it’s possible to find products that are not perfectly symmetrical and rotating parts that vibrate, produce noise and may damage the system. Even a slight unbalance may cause high vibrations and serious damage to components. In the case of rotors, balancing reduces noise, vibration and energy consumption.
In the automotive sector, the components that require balance range from accessories for armatures, blades, brake discs, clutches, drums, electric fans, fans, flywheels, grinding wheels, impellers, motors, pulleys, pumps, rotors, spindles, turbines, turbochargers, universal joints and many more. Whatever you need to balance, Balance Systems and the Engineering Technology Group (ETG) have the solution you require.
