The VibXpert 3 Balancer is the next-generation smart machine balancing tool that improves user experience, speeds up field balancing workflow, and bolsters asset health.
How Vibration Measurement Helps Extend Asset Life
All rotating machinery vibrates, but excess vibration due to unbalance increases wear and reduces the performance and longevity of machines and their components. With the VibXpert 3 Balancer, teams can promote safety and extend machine life by measuring vibration regularly. Regularly tracking asset status lets teams embrace condition-based maintenance. So, rather than conducting interval based maintenance, they can adjust activities to align with actual asset needs.
This can reduce downtime as well as labor and parts costs.
Solving Unbalance — Fast
Unbalance is an uneven distribution of mass around an axis of rotation.
Bearings, seals, nozzles, couplings, and more wear much faster when machines are unbalanced. Unbalance is one of the most common reasons for unplanned machine downtime and costly damage. Correctly balanced machines sustain peak performance for much longer, with increased efficiency.
Today, operators are increasingly using machines on a variable speed basis, and at or near the equipments’ engineered capacity. This increases the risk of resonant vibration. Well balanced machine components reduce that risk.
The VibXpert 3 Balancer maximizes balancing efficiency through advanced software capabilities that streamline workflow and speeds up balancing procedures. This helps to minimize the number of steps involved, saving time for maintenance and service teams.
Fixing Machinery Unbalance Problems
Field balancing lets teams fix machinery unbalance on-site. This saves valuable time and resources while ensuring the smooth functioning of rotating assets.
Although field balancing is essential, the process can be challenging for maintenance and service technicians. Common challenges include:
• Equipment complexity:
Some rotating assets are intricate, with many components. This makes it tough for personnel to identify rotational unbalance causes and apply correct balancing techniques.
• Skill and experience requirements:
Proper field balancing requires skilled technicians with expertise in vibration analysis and machinery balancing techniques. Lack of experience can lead to improper balancing, making the issue worse.
• Real-time adjustments:
Performing field balancing requires real-time adjustments to correct the unbalance. This requires a strong understanding of the equipment for an appropriate response to changing conditions.
• Limited documentation:
Often, rotating assets lack sufficient documentation on their design or previous balancing procedures. This lack of information makes it challenging to determine the optimal balancing parameters.
• Time constraints:
Field balancing must be done efficiently to reduce downtime, which can make the procedure more stressful and complex.
• Environmental conditions:
Field balancing often happens in tough conditions like extreme temperatures, high humidity, or dusty areas. These conditions can impact measurement accuracy and technician safety.
