An Overview of the Steps
1. Collecting Machine data
2. Preparing Instrument & Sensor
3. Balancing really required ?
4. Balancing possible ?
5. Procedure of balancing

Step 1 - Collecting Machine data
Understand the machine to be balanced
as much as possible
Collect machine data
Take a photo of the machine

Step 3 - Balancing really required ?

Sample
Not Permissible, Balancing really required !
Measurement
9.95 mm/s
Step 4-1: Balancing possible?
– “single peak spectrum” ?
3) Use “C
- Spect” to
see velocity spectrum
www.sendig.com 12
Sample of non
- single peak spectrum
- not suitable for Balancing
www.sendig.com 13
Sample of non-single peak spectrum- Better change bearing before balancing
www.sendig.com 14
Sample of single peak spectrum –
You can reduce the vibration by Balancing

Step 4-2: Balancing possible ?
– “90o phase difference” ?
1) switch to balancer
and use 2-planes
balancing procedure
Phase Measurement:
Since phase difference is not 90o nor closer to 90o ,this means the
problem with the fan is something else other than unbalance.

Sample
Sample of nearly “90o phase difference” –
You can reduce the vibration by Balancing
1. Phase stable
2. Phase Measurement:
Vertical: 0.693 73
Phase
Horizontal: 1.569 150 difference is
77o

Characteristics Of
Imbalance
ω
•draw A0 & A1, calculate A1- A0
•measure the angle φ between A1- A0
o K and A0
φ •turn Q a φ along the direction of φ ,
Q gain the correct location of balancing
P mass.
A1- A0 •the weight of balancing mass is as
the following : A0
A1 φ P = Q
A0 A1 − A 0

Method of Influence
Coefficients
Method of influence coefficients is
widely used, its step as the following
(1 plane balancing as example):

Operation Basic
Prompt is displayed at the last line
Press ‘∧’ and ‘∨’ key to move the
cursor up and down
Press Enter to select iterm
Press number keys to input digits
To other MENU, press PgDn or
PgUp
www.sendig.com 30
Always make sure the
“Setting” is correct before the
balancing
Enter a digit, select 1 set of data from 10
Change by “ENTER”,
use displacement or
velocity for most machines
Input sensitivity (from
accelerometer certificate)

INITIAL MEASUREMENT
Press Enter to measure
rotation speed first
Press Enter for a moment
to measure vibration after
rotation speed become
steady
After phase and amplitude
become steady, press
Enter for a moment to end
the measurement
www.sendig.com 32
TRIAL ESTIMATION
Input the 4
parameters
When cursor on 6th
line, press Enter to
calculate trial range
Stop the machine, fix
a trial mass according
to the range
www.sendig.com 33
TRIAL MEASUREMENT
Input phase and weight of the
trial, confirm whether it will be
removed afterward, restart the
machine
Move cursor to 6th line, press
Enter to measure rotation speed
When RPM steady, press Enter a
moment to measure vibration
When amplitude and phase
steady, press Enter for a
moment to end the
measurement
