SBR-10 machine is a professional special equipment for high-speed balancing of assembled cartridges. It is ideal for repair workshops specializing in turbocharger reconditioning. It solves a wide range of tasks that service stations face on a daily basis. The SBR-10 has a universal mounting system for any cartridge weighing up to 9 kg. The equipment is highly productive and is used not only in workshops, but also in production facilities with serial production of turbochargers. The balancing machine stops automatically at an unacceptable vibration value, which prevents destruction of the cartridge even if mistakes are made during assembly. This feature and the triple degree of oil cleaning make it the safest of its kind.    

The tasks it solves:

  • high-speed modal balancing of cartridges (up to 300,000 rpm).
  • vibration testing of assembled cartridges (from 0,2 to 10 G).
  • Running-in of cartridges after assembly at operating speeds;
  • checking the cartridges for oil leakage.
  • assembly quality control (report generation and printing).
The balancing machine is equipped with an oil station with hydraulic pump for quality testing and cartridge part preservation. A highly sensitive suspension determines the position and unbalance of the shaft at operating speeds (80,000 to 300,000 rpm). The turbocharger is accelerated to operating speeds by compressed air through the pneumatic system.

  • Balancing of cartridges up to 9 kg in safe conditions as the hydraulic system supplies heated oil (from 40 to 65 ° C) under pressure (1-4 bar) to the cartridge creating a ” lubricating wedge ” that protects the parts from wear and tear at high speed.
  • Elimination of unbalance without removing the cartridge from the stand, eliminating the need to reset it due to the triple degree of cleaning oil, eliminating ingress of chips and particles into the cartridge.
  • High quality repair without risks. The bench is equipped with an auto-stop system in case of a high vibration level, which prevents a poorly assembled cartridge from destroying itself on the bench.
  • The alarm system, pressure gauges and temperature relay allow for an immediate assessment of the condition of all the support systems of the bench.
  • The well-thought-out design of the enclosure provides free access to any component or unit of the bench, as well as guarantees comfortable and safe work of the operator in the working area.
  • Balancing of the turbocharger at rated speeds corresponding to the requirements of the European standard ISO 11342:1994.
  • A wide database with the possibility of its self-renewal will allow the bench to remain up-to-date for 10 years.
  • Display of graphs of the previous measurement enables quick assessment of the efficiency of the unbalance correction, simplifying the analysis of the graphs.
  • Display of phase, vibration acceleration, speed and tolerance in digital and graphical formats makes balancing easier and allows you to quickly master the operation of the balancing system without special training.
  • Balance reports are stored in the computer, containing results, date, time, turbine type and job order number. They can be printed on the printer to confirm the quality of the assembly and balance.
  • Safe operation of the machine is ensured in accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 12100.
Ultra-High-Speed Turbocharger Engineering
  • Operational speed simulation – Engineered to balance turbochargers at maximum operational speeds up to 300,000 rpm, replicating exact operating conditions encountered in automotive applications. This capability enables elimination of dynamic deflection effects that only manifest at operating speeds, ensuring guaranteed repair quality and turbocharger performance reliability.
  • Flexible rotor behavior analysis – Addresses the critical transition above 50,000 rpm where turbocharger shafts exhibit “flex type” rotor characteristics with arbitrary directional bending. The machine analyzes deflection intensity, direction, frequency periods, and manifestation patterns to enable precise balancing of flexible rotor dynamics.
  • 0.01G ultra-precision measurement – Achieves exceptional balancing accuracy of 0.01G specifically calibrated for high-speed turbocharger applications where minute unbalances create significant operational issues. This precision level ensures optimal turbocharger performance and extended service life under demanding automotive operating conditions.

Advanced Hydraulic Protection System
  • Oil wedge protection technology – Integrated hydraulic system creates protective “oil wedge” in gaps between turbocharger components, preventing contact during high-speed balancing operations. This protection system enables safe operation at extreme speeds while protecting valuable turbocharger components from damage during the balancing process.
  • Triple-stage oil purification – Hydraulic oil undergoes three-stage purification process ensuring turbocharger component safety and enabling unbalance correction without cartridge removal from the machine. The comprehensive purification system maintains oil cleanliness critical for turbocharger bearing protection and eliminates readjustment time.
