Comparison Chart for Soft Bearing Balancing Machines

Product catalog summary

Overview: This document provides detailed specifications for the B Series horizontal soft bearing balancing machines, available in both metric and imperial capacities. It includes information on weight capacities, rotor diameters, journal diameters, sensitivity, and other technical parameters for various models.

Specifications:

Weight Capacity: Models range from a minimum of 0.009 kg (0.022 lb) to a maximum of 11,350 kg (25,000 lb).
Rotor Diameter: Maximum rotor diameters range from 254 mm (10 inches) to 3,150 mm (124 inches).
Journal Diameter Range: Varies from 2-610 mm (0.08-24 inches) depending on the model.
Sensitivity: Maximum sensitivity per plane ranges from 0.015 g-mm to 14 g-mm (0.0006 g-in to 0.6 g-in).
Residual Unbalance: Minimum residual unbalance is consistent at 0.065 g-in/kg (0.0012 g-in/lb) across most models.
Base Length and Journal Separation: Standard base lengths and maximum journal separations vary, with options for base extensions.
Drive Specifications: Drive motor power ranges from 0.05 kW (0.07 HP) to 19 kW (25 HP), with standard drive voltages of 115V or 230V for single-phase and 460V for three-phase.

Procedures and Recommendations:

For achieving specified accuracy, machines must be mounted on suitable foundations and insulated from vibrations.
Balancing speeds for the 290C and 290T instruments are specified, with lower speeds achievable by reducing minimum residual unbalance.

Contact Information: Headquarters for IRD Balancing are located in Worthington, OH, USA, and Chester, UK, with contact details provided for both locations.

Note: Specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
