What is BS ISO 21940-11 - Procedures and tolerances for rotors about?
Rotor balancing is a procedure by which the mass distribution of a rotor is checked and, as necessary, adjusted to ensure the unbalance tolerance is met. BS ISO 21940-11:2016+A1:2022 establishes procedures and unbalance tolerances for balancing rotors with rigid behaviour, providing guidance on the magnitude of the permissible residual unbalance for a range of machine types.
Who is BS ISO 21940-11 - Procedures and tolerances for rotors for?
BS ISO 21940-11 applies in a wide range of rotating machine design, construction and operation industries and is written for engineers and balance machine operators in balancing test facilities.
What does BS ISO 21940-11 - Procedures and tolerances for rotors cover?
It establishes procedures and unbalance tolerances for balancing rotors with rigid behaviour. It specifies:
The magnitude of the permissible residual unbalance
The necessary number of correction planes
The allocation of the permissible re...
