Balancing Machine for Railway Carriage Wheels BVW-F Advantages Balancing of disc-shaped rotors with large mass and diameter. Application in series or singlepiece production of: Railway carriage wheels, Wheel brake discs, Friction rings. Manual loading and unloading by the operator using a crane with lifting gear or automated with gantry loader. Compact design for minimum floor space requirement Manually or automated loading. Fully automatic balancing with unbalance correction by milling. Permanent calibration. Sliding protection opening downwards on 3 sides for optimum loading of workpiece. Conforms to UIC 812-3 and EN 13262 technical specification for the supply of solid wheels for traction vehicles and trolleys. Simple conversion using workpiece specific adaptor parts. The workpieces are clamped on the measuring spindle with zerobacklash using a wedge bar chuck for measuring. For mass correction the work piece is clamped at the outer diameter by three centring clamps with downholder function. Front view The mass-correction is performed per customer specification by segment milling or in accordance with UIC 812-3 and EN 13262 using a formed cutter. The resulting swarf is extracted using an exhaust hood and a suction unit. Unbalance correction by segment milling on the workpiece circumference with formed cutter.
