Precision Field Balancing

Machines that have been precision balanced run longer, and cost less to run. Unbalance causes fatigue and reduces the life of bearings and can make looseness and resonance conditions far worse.  If you want to learn how to perform in-place dynamically balancing, the Mobius Institute course is for you.  It will equip you with the knowledge and skills so that you can use a vibration analyzer/balancer, or a simple sheet of graph paper and protractor, and balance a machine - without even having to remove it from the plant. You will learn how to recognize unbalance and set up the balance job for a successful balance. We will start with the basics, providing an introduction to vibration, phase and vectors, and fully explain the balancing process. You will learn how to balance a machine using the single-plane and two-plane balance function of your analyzer, after you first learn how to perform a single plane balance with vectors. You will watch a demonstration of the balance process, and you will be able to try it for yourself.

If you have to balance machines, then you need this course. If you own a modern analyzer/balancer you have two choices: you can just take the readings and do what the analyzer tells you to do, or you can understand what you are doing and be prepared when things go wrong – and they will. We will ensure you understand the entire process, and give you the skills to return to the plant and perform precision balancing.  Although we will not have time to explain the operation of every model of vibration analyzer, we will provide you with the knowledge so that you will be successful with whatever model you own.

Machines that have been precision aligned run longer, use less energy and cost less to operate. Vibration caused by misalignment greatly reduces the life of bearings, seals, shafts and couplings. This computer-based training program will equip you with the knowledge and skills to use a dial indicator tool or laser alignment system to precisely align two components. Using our step-by-step training system on your computer, you will learn how to recognize misalignment and successfully set up the alignment job, perform the alignment and move the machine. 

After reviewing the important reasons for performing shaft alignment, we will discuss the pre-alignment checks and corrections, including how to identify and correct soft foot. We start with the operation of dial indicators, and cover the rim-face and reverse-dial methods. Importantly, we explain and demonstrate the process, and will teach you how the calculations must be performed. 

Laser alignment systems have greatly improved the ease of precision alignment; we will discuss the benefits, basic theory of operation, and tips and techniques for successful use. Finally we discuss how to move the machine and deal with all the problems that you are bound to encounter at some stage. We will also review how to deal with thermal growth, and how to approach a larger machine train.

If you align machines, you need to attend this course so you will understand what you are doing, anticipate problems and complete any alignment job successfully. We will ensure you understand the entire process, and give you the skills to perform precision alignment
