Rotor High-Speed Balance

Shop Repairs & Services

EthosEnergy are capable of simulating operating conditions, conducting a wide-range of testing, and providing other services to complement any balancing operation.

EthosEnergy is able to provide comprehensive high-speed dynamic balance of rotors within our balancing room. We are capable of simulating operating conditions, conducting a wide-range of testing, and providing other services to complement any balancing operation. Our balancer has the possibility to balance rotors with continuous flow of current through the winding. The balancing can be performed at various stages of rotor work progress, e.g. on rotors as received from the customer to estimate its initial condition and after all servicing works are finished as the final check at the shop.

Details of our Schenck dynamic balancer are:

• max rotor weight: 80 ton
• max rotor diameter: 3.5 m
• max rotational speed: 4,500 rpm
• power of driving motors: 2×2.5 MW

We perform at-speed rotor tests when simulating operating conditions within the balance bunker. These tests ensure that each rotor recondition, repair and/or rewind is a success.
