Product catalog summary
Applications
  • Automatic balancing of grinding wheels
  • Balancing during operation
  • Compensation of unbalance in one or two balancing planes
  • Achieving perfect smooth running
  • Monitoring of unbalance vibrations
Description

The active balancing system HB 6000 compensates rotor unbalance using the component method. It features a four-chamber ring container as the balancing head. A control unit continuously receives data on rotational speed and vibrations. If vibrations exceed a preset limit, an automatic balancing procedure is initiated by the machine's PLC or the user. The HB 6000 can balance in one or two planes using an iterative procedure based on actual measurement data. The ring containers can be integrated into flanges or mounted separately on the rotor axis, with balancing capacity dependent on size. Speed sensors are integrated or mounted externally, and balancing liquids are available directly on the machine or provided in circuits.

Advantages
  • Increase in product quality and machine availability
  • Permanent vibration monitoring
  • Integration of ring container into spindle
  • Software for manual pre-balancing
Unbalance Compensation

Unbalance compensation is achieved by controlled injection of liquid into the container chambers. Correction size and direction are generated within the container's capacity limitations. If balancing capacity is insufficient, manual pre-balancing can be performed using the HB 6000's software. Fluid is injected into axial annular grooves of the container as it rotates, flowing through openings into the respective chambers. A fixed nozzle block opposite the grooves releases fluid through specific nozzles into the required chambers. Chambers are emptied when the spindle stops rotating.

Active Balancing HydroBalancer HB 6000 Advantages Increase in product quality and machine availability Permanent vibration monitoring Integration of ring container into spindle Software for manual pre-balancing Applications Automatic balancing of Grinding Wheels Balancing during operation Compensation of unbalance in one or two balancing planes Achieving perfect smooth running Monitoring of unbalance vibrations Description The active balancing system HB 6000 compensates rotor unbalance using the component method. A four chamber ring container constitutes the balancing head. The unbalance compensation is achieved by controlled injection of liquid into the container chambers. Any correction size and direction can be generated within the limitations of the capacity as determined by the container design. Should the balancing capacity not be sufficient, a manual pre-balancing can be performed using the balancing software incorporated into the HB 6000 control unit. The fluid is injected into axial annular grooves of the container as it rotates. From there the fluid flows through an opening into the respective chambers of the container. A fixed nozzle block is positioned directly opposite the annular grooves. Solenoid valves release the fluid and insure that it is sent through a specific nozzle into the required annular groove and ring chamber. The chambers are emptied once the spindle stops rotating. A control unit constantly receives the measured data - rotational speed and vibrations. If the vibration exceeds a preset limit, an automatic balancing procedure is started by either the machine´s PLC or the user. The HB 6000 balances automatically in either one or two planes using an iterative procedure based on the actual measurement data. The ring containers are integrated into flanges or mounted as a separate part onto the rotor axis. The containers’ balancing capacity depends on size. The speed sensor is integrated in the nozzle block or mounted externally. Balancing liquids are either available directly on the machine (i.e. grinding oils or emulsions) or they are provided in open or closed circuits.
