Professional measurement for heavy applications

9D718U 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 9D718U 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.

The 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.

The 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.

Large-Scale Configuration Design
  • Extended machine bed platform – 4600mm between support length provides substantial workspace for large industrial rotors with option for custom extensions. The extended platform maintains structural integrity and vibration isolation across substantial spans for heavy rotor applications.
  • Maximum diameter accommodation – Support geometry accommodates rotors up to 2500mm diameter above bedding for large industrial components. The oversized clearance enables handling of substantial rotor assemblies including large turbine rotors and heavy machinery components.
  • Massive initial unbalance handling capacity – Reinforced structural design accommodates rotors with extremely large initial unbalances common in heavy industrial applications without machine damage. The robust construction enables substantial correction operations directly on the machine for enhanced productivity in heavy industry.
  • Heavy rotor handling integration – Design includes jacks for rotor handling as standard equipment for safe manipulation of heavy components. The integrated handling system facilitates setup operations for rotors in the upper weight range without auxiliary equipment requirements.
Advanced Measurement Integration
  • Enhanced vibration sensor mounting for heavy rotors – Sensor configuration optimized for heavy rotor applications with micro-vibration sensitivity despite substantial rotor masses. The mounting design provides maximum sensitivity throughout the extended operational envelope while filtering industrial environmental disturbances.
  • High-load measurement stability – Support structure design provides exceptional vibration isolation from external sources while maintaining sensitivity to rotor-generated unbalances in heavy applications. This design ensures accurate measurements in demanding heavy industrial environments.
  • Advanced PAK-1 control system integration – Standard PAK-1 measurement system provides sophisticated control capabilities optimized for heavy rotor applications. The advanced control integration maintains measurement precision throughout the extended operational envelope.
Mechanical Structure & Base Design
  • Heavy monolithic support and base construction – Reinforced integrated framework minimizes oscillation system elements to eliminate vibration losses during high-load measurement cycles. This enhanced structural design ensures consistent accuracy across the 80-8000kg heavy rotor weight capacity.
  • Precision roller assembly with advanced bearings – Rollers manufactured using patented “exact barrel”® grinding technology with heavy precision bearing integration for superior rotational accuracy under high loads. The specialized bearing configuration optimizes performance for heavy industrial rotor applications with extended operational life.
  • Hard-bearing design for heavy rotors – Low natural resonance frequency of reinforced support structure enables balancing operations at reduced rotational speeds for enhanced safety with heavy rotors. This design characteristic reduces power requirements while maintaining measurement precision for substantial rotor masses.
Heavy-Duty Support Systems
  • Reinforced adjustable roller block height mechanism – Heavy-duty variable height system accommodates rotor bearing journals from 50-300mm diameter with precise centering capability under substantial loads. The robust adjustment mechanism enables setup flexibility for large industrial rotor geometries including turbine rotors and heavy machinery components.
  • Extended-width roller design for heavy rotor accommodation – Oversized roller width supports heavy rotors with substantial bearing loads while maintaining stability during rotation. This design feature enables balancing of heavy industrial assemblies with challenging load distribution requirements.
  • “MICRO-TUNING”® technology for heavy rotor alignment – Specialized heavy-duty compensation system eliminates measurement errors from axial misalignment during rotation cycles under high loads. This technology maintains accuracy regardless of substantial rotor positioning variations during setup of heavy components.
  • Extended center distance capability – Support design accommodates rotors with center distances up to 4600mm for large industrial applications. The extended span capability enables handling of substantial rotor assemblies while maintaining structural rigidity and measurement precision.
High-Capacity Drive System Configuration
  • Heavy-duty frequency-controlled asynchronous drive – 22kW electric motor with substantial power reserve design optimizes acceleration and deceleration cycles for the 80-8000kg weight range. Frequency inverter provides smooth speed control across 250-1000 rpm with infinitely variable adjustment capability for heavy rotor applications.
  • Patented “LONG STROKE”® heavy-duty belt drive – Reinforced 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.
  • Optional high-torque axial drive with extendable spindle – Cardan shaft transmission provides maximum torque capability for specialized heavy rotor configurations requiring direct drive connection. The extendable spindle design adapts to variable rotor lengths while preserving measurement accuracy for complex industrial geometries.

The PAK-1 unbalance measuring unit represents the latest generation of measuring complexes for dynamic balancing, combining high precision, stability, and ease of use. It’s designed to tackle a wide range of rotor balancing tasks, from simple to the most complex, requiring precise measurements.

Based on an industrial fanless computer with a touchscreen and a multi-channel measuring unit, the system ensures reliability and a long service life, even under intensive use. The PAK-1 utilizes a universal measuring path and modern component base, allowing for equally high accuracy when working with all types of rotors.

Its intuitive interface, self-calibration capability, and automation of key operations make the complex a convenient tool for both experienced specialists and beginners.
