The object of research is the process of dynamic balancing of rotors on a balancing machine in the process of restoring electric machines.
The work is aimed at improving the quality of balancing rotors in the process of major repairs of traction electric motors for electric trains. The problem addressed was the quality of balancing the rotors of electric machines on stationary balancing machines. According to the conventional balancing technology, the rotor to be balanced is mounted on the supports of the balancing machine with support surfaces that usually have mechanical defects. These defects cannot be eliminated by machining due to the peculiarities of rotor repair technology. Theoretical and experimental studies of the effect of damage to the rotor support surfaces on the balancing parameters have been carried out. It has been proven that the properties of the bearing surfaces of the rotor during its balancing on a balancing machine significantly affect the results of determining the imbalance. At the same time, the difference in the mass values of balancing loads can reach 25 %. This is because damage to the bearing surfaces of the rotor generates false signals unrelated to the imbalance.
In order to increase the accuracy of determining the mass of balancing loads during rotor balancing, it is proposed to improve the technological process of balancing. The improvement involves the inclusion of a frequency filter in the signal conversion chain of acceleration sensors. The filter is designed to separate signals with a frequency greater than the rotational frequency of the rotor.
A condition for the practical application of the research results is the expediency of introducing a frequency filter of signals of acceleration sensors with a threshold frequency of filtering signals that exceeds the rotational frequency of the rotor into the schematic diagram of the balancing machine.
