Supplying suitable balancing tooling involves much more than simply adapting a rotor or a shaft to a balancing machine. Balancing tooling must ensure that tolerances can be both achieved and repeated. The issue of repeatability, while often overlooked, is a key element in the balancing process. If tooling is not designed and built for repeatability, achieving correct balance can be a time-consuming hit or miss process that can cause production bottlenecks and delays.
By designing tooling not only based on tight tolerances, but around extreme levels of repeatability, we can eliminate the risks, delays and time involved in balancing rotating components or assemblies. To achieve this, we have developed not only an in-depth understanding of balancing principles, but we also understand the equipment being employed and how it is used by our customers in their design and manufacturing processes. We further use state-of-the-industry design, engineering ,FEA analysis and manufacturing equipment and processes to design and build tools, components and equipment that will meet our customers' key needs.
Members of our balancing team have published numerous articles on balancing and serve in key positions in SAE and similar governing organizations. Our executives and engineers are regularly invited to trade shows, company events and conferences as speakers and instructors.
Vibration Solutions North has an extensive patent and intellectual property portfolio in the area of vibration elimination and mitigation, and we have numerous patents both issued and in process for innovations in tooling that allows for extremely fine levels of repeatability and reproducibility. Kin-Dex ™ tooling patents represent some of the most significant developments in the balancing industry in recent years. As our clients have been faced with ever more stringent requirements in Gage R&R we have delivered innovative tooling that exceeds their requirements while dramatically shortening the time it takes to balance critical rotating assemblies such as turbines, shafts and other subassemblies.
The Vibration Solutions North team has the capabilities to troubleshoot issues related to vibration and balance, engineer solutions and design necessary tooling and manufacture key components and hardware. We build, install and support complete turnkey tooling and balancing packages, and work in the R&D stage to design components and assemblies that factor in or even eliminate vibration issues. Vibration Solutions North builds its tooling in the Moscow Mills state-of-the-art facility. This assures our customers the best tooling possible complemented with a culture built on customer service as one of its core values. VSN and its team of engineers and support staff can assist you in all fields related to balancing.
