Schenck SmartBalancer 3
The intelligent way to field balancing
simple – fast – accurate
The SmartBalancer is a portable measuring device for field balancing. Its complete operating philosophy is based on our current CAB measuring units, and offers the same precision and convenience, meaning that it can be quickly integrated into your business without complicated familiarisation or training.
The mobile field balancing machine from the experts
The statistics are indisputable: Over 50% of all faults and failures of machines and systems can be attributed directly or indirectly to unbalances in rotors. The SmartBalancer helps you to identify an unbalance simply and accurately, and to correct it with the minimum effort. This ensures the reliability of your machines and systems, and increases your competitiveness. With the SmartBalancer, rotors of almost any size and weight can be balanced quickly, costeffectively and accurately in the installed condition, and therefore without having to dismantle the machine.Thanks to the comprehensive diagnosis capabilities, the SmartBalancer keeps you up-to-date with the vibration condition of your machines – and therefore keeps your business running.
Operation
Make your work easier with the high operating convenience
With the SmartBalancer you have everything under control at all times – and in one hand. All functions of the unit can be operated easily and intuitively by means of navigation keys and a few function keys, even by inexperienced users. The brilliant colour display with its easily understandable pictograms and the simple file structure are based on the commonly used Windows presentation. This makes the SmartBalancer an efficient and practical tool for tracking down unbalances during ongoing operations.
Benefit from our complete package for field balancing
Even the basic scope of delivery contains everything you need for field balancing: Everything required for immediate use is provided, from the acceleration sensor, laser reference pickup with magnetic stand and all required connection cables, to the power supply unit/charger and USB connection cable. Further functionalities are available as options. This makes the SmartBalancer an indispensable instrument in your business – an untiring worker and analyst.
Features
A tool with many talents
The SmartBalancer is outstanding for its comprehensive measurement and analysis functions, which offer you valuable services for field balancing. It is also ideally suitable for the commissioning, service and maintenance of machines and systems. From the measurement, assessment and diagnosis of the machine condition, to the assessment of the roller bearings or the bump test, to documentation and archiving of all the results: The SmartBalancer is a genuine smart instrument – for many applications over and above field balancing.
Diagnosis of the machine condition
For the identification of the causes of vibration, the SmartBalancer offers high-performance, two-channel FFT frequency analysis. This breaks down the vibration mixture occurring in the machine into their harmonic components, and displays them clearly in the form of a spectrum. By means of these frequencies, the causes of the vibration can be determined, and unbalanced rotors clearly identified.
