Product catalog summary
Overview
The Absolute Balancer® is an advanced automatic balancing technology designed for grinding machines, available in configurations for 1 and 2 plane balancing. It offers high performance in execution speed and accuracy, managed by the VM25 modular multifunction unit using contactless control (NoLink).

Features
  • Exclusive design with moment-free architecture.
  • Available in various diameters starting from 28mm for built-in spindle mounting.
  • Embedded rotational speed sensor supporting up to 25,000 rpm.
  • Achieves residual unbalance significantly lower than traditional solutions.
  • Deterministic balancing time with automatic neutral cycle.
  • Optional integration of an acoustic emission sensor (AE).

Benefits
  • Optimizes surface geometry and quality of work-pieces.
  • Increases machine productivity and spindle/wheel lifespan.
  • Reduces environmental impact by extending dressing intervals.
  • Operates without requiring surveillance.

Applications
1 Plane Balancing: Suitable for gear grinding machines, machines with super-abrasive wheels, high-speed cycle machines, and mass production environments. It addresses unbalance caused by material inhomogeneity, coolant absorption, and mechanical assembly tolerances.
2 Plane Balancing: Used in gear grinding machines with single or double wheels, cylindrical grinding machines, and centerless grinding machines. It provides faster and more precise balancing, improving productivity.

Configuration Descriptions
  • A: Spindle with side access, controlled by contactless collector embedded with the balancing head.
  • B: Spindle clamped by a conical device, controlled by a ring-shaped contactless collector.
  • C: Spindle with double side access and internal bore, controlled by a contactless collector on one side.
  • D: Spindle with one side access covering full length, controlled by a contactless collector on one side.
  • E: Spindle with access on both sides, connected with internal bore, with the balancing head on the grinding wheel side.

VM25 Multi-function Modular System
The VM25 control unit integrates additional functions for machine applications, including manual pre-balancing, wheel-piece contact control, wheel-work dressing profile control, and in-post process control of diameters and shapes. It supports various protocols and interfaces like Digital I/O, Profibus DP, and Profinet.

Technical Data
  • Power source: 18-30 Vdc, max 78 W.
  • Unbalance measuring unit: µm, mm/s with 0.001 resolution.
  • Balancing head diameters range from 28 to 81 mm.
  • Max operating rotational speed: 25,000 rpm.
  • Integrated rotational speed sensor and vibration transducers.
  • Optional acoustic emission sensor (AE).

The needs For grinders in a production environment, it is becoming increasingly critical to obtain high dimensional control, geometric tolerances and surface finish qualities while maintaining or improving productivity levels. The highest quality is achieved with a grinding wheel where both the static and the dynamic components of the unbalance are virtually eliminated. The lack of homogeneity of the grinding wheel material, its consumption during use and the absorption of the coolant together with the tolerances of mechanical assembly, create an overall unbalance which affects the quality of...

Typical applications for 2 plane balancing • Gear grinding machines with single or double grinding wheel (roughing and finishing) • Cylindrical grinding machines between centers in configuration with one grinding wheel on both sides of the spindle • Cylindrical grinding machines with super-abrasive wheels ( e.g.: CBN) requiring an additional correction plane • Centerless grinding machines • Cylindrical grinding machines with grinding wheels pack Spindle with double side access and without internal bore. The control is performed by contact less collector embedded with the balancing head body on...
