  • La Nivelación de Partes Móviles: Esencial para una Operación Sin Vibraciones

    ¿ Has percibido alguna vez temblores inusuales en un equipo industrial? ¿O sonidos fuera de lo común? Muchas veces, el problema está en algo tan básico como un desequilibrio en alguna pieza rotativa . Y créeme, ignorarlo puede costarte caro .

    El equilibrado de piezas es un procedimiento clave en la producción y cuidado de equipos industriales como ejes, volantes, rotores y partes de motores eléctricos . Su objetivo es claro: impedir oscilaciones que, a la larga, puedan provocar desperfectos graves.

    ¿Por qué es tan importante equilibrar las piezas?
    Imagina que tu coche tiene una rueda desequilibrada . Al acelerar, empiezan las sacudidas, el timón vibra y resulta incómodo circular así. En maquinaria industrial ocurre algo similar, pero con consecuencias mucho más graves :

    Aumento del desgaste en bearings y ejes giratorios
    Sobrecalentamiento de partes críticas
    Riesgo de averías súbitas
    Paradas no planificadas y costosas reparaciones
    En resumen: si no se corrige a tiempo, una mínima falla podría derivar en una situación compleja.

    Métodos de equilibrado: cuál elegir
    No todos los casos son iguales. Dependiendo del tipo de pieza y su uso, se aplican distintas técnicas:

    Equilibrado dinámico
    Perfecto para elementos que operan a velocidades altas, tales como ejes o rotores . Se realiza en máquinas especializadas que detectan el desequilibrio en varios niveles simultáneos. Es el método más preciso para garantizar un funcionamiento suave .
    Equilibrado estático
    Se usa principalmente en piezas como ruedas, discos o volantes . Aquí solo se corrige el peso excesivo en una sola superficie . Es rápido, fácil y funcional para algunos equipos .
    Corrección del desequilibrio: cómo se hace
    Taladrado selectivo: se quita peso en el punto sobrecargado
    Colocación de contrapesos: como en ruedas o anillos de volantes
    Ajuste de masas: habitual en ejes de motor y partes relevantes
    Equipos profesionales para detectar y corregir vibraciones
    Para hacer un diagnóstico certero, necesitas herramientas precisas. Hoy en día hay opciones disponibles y altamente productivas, por ejemplo :

    ✅ Balanset-1A — Tu asistente móvil para analizar y corregir oscilaciones

  • Vibración de motor
    Ofrecemos dispositivos de equilibrado!
    Producimos nosotros mismos, construyendo en tres naciones simultáneamente: Argentina, España y Portugal.

    El equipo de equilibrio es móvil, liviano, lo que le permite balancear cualquier eje rotativo en diversos entornos laborales.
