- Page 69 Glossary MC10 HS Glossary Calibration The basics With calibration, the sensitivity of the unbalance measuring sys- tem is adjusted to the signals of the encoders in the machine. The signal magnitudes and phases are assigned to the calibration un- balances, which are attached to the test rotor.
- Page 70 Glossary MC10 HS rotor (weight and dimension). It must, however, be guaranteed that the attachment radius and attachment angle can be precisely matched. Machine Calibration With this calibration, the specific parameters of the measuring device are determined. The installation of the machine, the components of the measuring device, such as the encoders and springs, and the test rotor used all effect the values measured.
- Page 71 Glossary MC10 HS Predefined unbalance In some areas of balancing technology, it is necessary to work with simulation unbalances in serial balancing in order to simu- late unbalances, which occur when the workpiece is in practical use, e.g. screws, feather keys (half cylinder) and other connect- ing and attachment parts.
