Abstract
Dynamic balancing of spin-stabilized systems in the aerospace industry is generally done at low rotational velocities about a vertical spin axis. This has led to development of a new family of dynamic/static balancing machines. This paper is a discussion of the development of this family of dynamic/static balancing equipment.
Section 2, ‘Dynamic/Static Balancing Theory,’ describes the theory of two-plane dynamic/static balancing. Section 3, ‘Why Balance’ reviews the types of assemblies which require balancing and why they require it. Section 4, ‘Principles of Balance Machine Design,’ covers design considerations that have led to the development of this new family of dynamic/static balancing machines. Section 5, ‘A Look into the Near Future,’ is a short range projection of what considerations are now influencing balance machine development.
