Why Balance
“Industrial balancing enables the early detection of faults before breakdown and assists commercial and industrial facilities reduce their maintenance costs and unscheduled downtime”.
Lengthens service life
Bearings, suspensions, housings, and foundations can be subjected to very high stresses caused by vibration resulting from unbalance and these result in greater wear. Products with unbalanced parts often have a shorter service life.
Reduces chances of failure
Vibration and imbalance can lead to catastrophic failure. Reduce costly downtime labour and material costs from machinery breakdowns. Vibrations can reduce the frictional grip of screwed and clamped connections, until components loosen. Electric switches are destroyed by vibration, pipes and cables can fracture at the connections.
Increases equipment performance, operating quality, and economy
Improves running conditions to maximise return on investment, ensures optimum performance of machinery. Vibrations also have a substantial negative effect on the production result of machine tools if the spindle and tools have not been precisely balanced
Increases bearing life and reduces bearing loads
Keeps your idlers running faster, smoother, and cooler, and reduces noise and disruptive vibration.
Ensuring the health and safety of persons working with machinery
Machine operators’ effort increases, and they become tired more quickly on unbalanced machines. Unbalance can substantially reduce a machine’s operating safety; both man and machine are at risk.
