The problem we addressed is the dynamic imbalance of a rotating body. This phenomenon occurs in almost all devices or machines, such as shafts, axles, fans, rotors, and similar components. Dynamic imbalance not only causes increased noise, vibrations, and discomfort during machine operation but also significantly shortens the lifespan of its components. The goal of this thesis was to eliminate this problem by designing and manufacturing a portable device that enables balancing of the rotating element directly in the field, without the need to dismantle the device or machine.
In the diploma, we first presented the theoretical foundations of dynamic imbalance, then provided a detailed explanation of the selection of electronic components, their interconnections, and commented on the software code that enables the device’s operation. We verified the device’s functionality in practice by testing it on a tractor mulcher, where we almost completely eliminated the rotor vibrations.
