How Dynamic Balancing is Performed
Dynamic balancing involves several critical steps to ensure that the rotor is correctly balanced. Before initiating the balancing process, it is crucial to ensure that the machinery is technically sound and securely mounted. If necessary, repairs should be made, and any contaminants should be cleaned off the rotor.
Prior to measurements, vibration sensors must be strategically placed according to recommended guidelines. It is advisable to conduct preliminary measurements in vibrometer mode to assess the overall condition of the rotor.
If the total vibration levels (V1s or V2s) closely match the rotational components (V1o or V2o), it indicates that rotor unbalance is the primary contributor to vibration. Conversely, if total vibration significantly exceeds the rotational component, further inspection of the machinery is warranted.
Process Steps for Balancing with Balanset-1A
1. Equipment Preparation
Install vibration sensors perpendicular to the rotor's axis, secure the laser tachometer, and connect the device to a laptop via USB. Launch the Balanset software and select the two-plane balancing mode.
2. Initial Vibration Measurement
Weigh the test load and record its weight and radius. Start the rotor to measure the initial vibration levels, determining amplitude and phase of the initial unbalance.
3. Balancing in the First Plane
Place the test load in the first balancing plane and restart the rotor. A change of at least 20% in amplitude or phase indicates partial correction of unbalance.
4. Balancing in the Second Plane
Move the test load to the second balancing plane and repeat the measurement. This data will help the program determine the exact position and weight of corrective loads.
5. Correction of Unbalance
Based on the data, the Balanset software will recommend corrective weights and their installation angles. Install these weights accordingly and start the rotor for final verification.
6. Verification and Completion
Run the rotor for a final check. If vibration levels are acceptable, the process is complete. If further adjustments are needed, the program will guide you on additional weight placements.
Conclusion
The Balanset-1A is not just a tool; it is an essential component in the maintenance of machinery that relies on dynamic balancing. With its advanced features and user-friendly interface, it answers the question, how is dynamic balancing of turbines performed? By following the outlined steps and utilizing the Balanset-1A, operators can ensure the longevity and efficiency of their machinery, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity.
