Dynamic Balancing

Uneven weight distribution creates excessive force in rotating equipment. This unbalance results in excessive vibration which causes premature bearing failure, reduced energy efficiency, shaking, rattling, foundation and structure cracks, or loosening of bolts and mountings. Product accuracy is affected, safety is compromised, and equipment will need to be replaced sooner than necessary.

Stop this damaging vibration by letting us balance your combine rotors, straw choppers, hay grinders, fans of all sizes, and most anything else that rotates. We provide in-house and on-site balancing services of all types of rotating machinery using state-of-the-art software and instrumentation.

Unbalance is common in rotating equipment. Almost all rotating equipment will benefit from Dynamic Balancing at some time simply because so many factors affect weight distribution every day. Let us help you to keep an eye on the health of your machinery with periodic monitoring. Periodic monitoring over time provides data that makes any deviation from baseline noticeable. This allows you to spot trends through consistent measurement.

Laser Alignment

Correctly aligned equipment lasts longer and saves on energy costs. Laser Alignment is a fast and accurate method of coupling alignment to get your machines back up and running. This method consistently achieves a high standard of accuracy in a short amount of time. “Eyeballing” is subject to error, as human perception cannot attain laser accuracy. Dial indicators are also not as accurate and take more time than Laser Alignment. Burdick Bros uses world-leading Pruftechnik Rotalign Pro instruments calibrated to ISO standards. Quick, accurate adjustments are made for thermal growth and soft foot.
