• Up to 32 channels for 1X acquisition
• Import 1X data (Amplitude and Phase vs. RPM from ORBIGate or from manual input from text files (csv template))
• Run-up, Coast-down, steady-state
• Balance at multiple speeds or ranges of speeds
• Calculate predicted Amplitude vs. RPM after balancing correction
• Multiplane report generation

With this technique, the number of machine starts is reduced, for example only 2 starts are necessary for a one plane balancing. When a balancing test has been achieved, the unbalance correction can be readjusted periodically without any further test thanks to the trim balance method.

Thanks to a one shot measurement, time and cost can be optimized for balancing tests. This technique can equally be used for balancing in series similar mechanical components basing the correction on only one machine start: this possibility is particularly interesting in production line Balancing.

The Balancing Solution is part of the family of solutions offered by OROS for Rotating Applications. Balancing rotors is a common practice during fault diagnosis on rotating machinery. Based on the OROS portable and rugged analyzers,  the Balancing solution is well adapted for field measurements.

Also based on the order tracking analysis technique, it can be performed efficiently and accurately. The Synchronous Order tracking thus allows a precise phase averaging even if the rotating speed is not perfectly stationary. A Balancing report can be easily generated showing for example the correction diagrams. The Balancing solution the tool to bring for Balancing cessions
