9D717 is an universal dynamic balancing machine with horizontal axis of rotation type. Generally, It is possible to balance the following kinds on such a machine:
- inter-support and cantilever rotors
- rotor on special mandrels (disks, fans, pumps)
- rotor in own bearings
Thanks to the narrow stands and belt drive, the balancing machine 9D717 is used for balancing of rotors of various structures at repair and production plants.
The machine has high accuracy (0,4 gmm \ kg). Accuracy is achieved due to the special design of the spindle and the rig of the machine, as well as a reliable balancing system, PAK-1, which has a high degree of noise immunity. Ease of control allows you to quickly learn how to work on the machine and get to work as soon as possible. When designing the machine, high demands were placed on the functionality and versatility of each node, this made it possible to install absolutely any driveshaft on the machine with a minimum of time.
Width of the support rollers and roller cartridges allows the rotor to be installed with a very short length. Highly located “roller cassettes” allow you to create products with different overall dimensions, and the modular design allows you to increase the standard dimensions of the machine due to spacers and accessories.
Support has the ability to adjust the “roller block” in height, this allows you to balance the rotor with different diameters of the support journals, and also allows you to center the rotor when setting up the machine.

Industrial Application Features
- High initial unbalance handling capacity – Structural design accommodates rotors with significant initial unbalances including damaged or heavily worn components without machine damage. The robust construction enables large correction operations directly on the machine for enhanced productivity.
- Modular tooling and spacer system – Configurable mounting arrangement accommodates unusual rotor configurations through specialized tooling combinations. The modular approach maintains measurement accuracy while adapting to non-standard industrial workpiece geometries.
- Own-bearing balancing capability – Support design enables balancing rotors in their original bearings without bearing replacement requirements. This capability reduces repair time and prevents potential trunnion damage during bearing removal operations.
- Disk and shaft type rotor compatibility – Mechanical configuration accommodates both disk-type components (impellers, working wheels) and shaft-type assemblies (drums, threshing equipment). The design flexibility enables handling diverse component geometries on single machine platform.
- Length-independent rotor mounting – Support design accommodates rotors of unlimited length within belt drive or bed constraints without compromising measurement precision. This flexibility enables handling of extended assemblies including metallurgical rolls and printing equipment shafts.
High Precision Balancing
- Precision roller assembly with advanced bearings – Rollers manufactured using patented “exact barrel”® grinding technology with high-precision bearing integration for superior rotational accuracy. The specialized bearing configuration optimizes performance for medium to heavy rotor applications.
- High-precision vibration sensor – Sensor configuration optimized for medium-heavy rotor applications with micro-vibration sensitivity and external disturbance filtering. The mounting design provides maximum sensitivity throughout the extended operational envelope.
- Enhanced measurement stability for industrial environment – Support structure design provides vibration isolation from external sources while maintaining sensitivity to rotor-generated unbalances. This design ensures accurate measurements in demanding industrial workshop environments.
Mechanical Structure Design
- Monolithic support and base construction – Integrated rigid framework minimizes oscillation system elements to eliminate vibration losses during measurement cycles. This structural design ensures consistent accuracy across the 15-1500kg rotor weight capacity range.
- Hard-bearing design – Low natural resonance frequency of support structure enables balancing operations at reduced rotational speeds for enhanced safety with heavier rotors. This design characteristic reduces power requirements while maintaining measurement precision.
- Simple yet robust functional design – Streamlined mechanical architecture provides reliability while maintaining operational versatility for diverse rotor types. The design philosophy emphasizes functional effectiveness over complexity for enhanced maintainability.
- Narrow stand design with enhanced capacity – Compact support geometry maximizes workspace accessibility while providing structural rigidity for medium-heavy rotor applications. The narrow profile enables installation in constrained environments without sacrificing load-bearing capacity.
- Adjustable roller block height mechanism – Variable height system accommodates rotor bearing journals from 40-230mm diameter with precise centering capability. The adjustment range enables setup flexibility for diverse industrial rotor geometries including electric motor armatures and generator rotors.
- Wide roller design for journal accommodation – Extended roller width supports rotors with varying bearing journal lengths while maintaining stability during high-speed rotation. This design feature enables balancing of both compact and extended rotor assemblies.
- “MICRO-TUNING”® axial alignment technology – Specialized compensation system eliminates measurement errors from axial misalignment during rotation cycles. This technology maintains accuracy regardless of rotor positioning variations during setup and operation.
Drive System Configuration
- Medium-capacity frequency-controlled drive – 7.5kW electric motor with power reserve design optimizes acceleration and deceleration cycles for the 15-1500kg weight range. Frequency inverter provides smooth speed control across 250-1200 rpm with infinitely variable adjustment capability.
- Patented “LONG STROKE”® belt drive mechanism – Configuration with an extended stroke capability and only two drive belts can accommodate rotors with different drive surface diameters. This design provides consistent torque delivery while maintaining operational flexibility.
