Balancing cardan shafts is a critical aspect of maintaining optimal performance and reliability in marine propulsion systems. At OHP Service Spain, we understand the importance of achieving proper balance in cardan shafts and are equipped with the technology, expertise, and skilled personnel to perform balancing procedures effectively.

The Challenge of Imbalance

In the marine environment, various factors, such as load changes, sea conditions, and operating speeds, can induce vibrations that affect the performance of cardan shafts. Unbalanced shafts can lead to excessive vibrations, noise, and potential mechanical failures, jeopardizing the safety and efficiency of marine vessels.

Dynamic Balancing at OHP

Dynamic balancing is the primary method used to address imbalances in cardan shafts. This process involves precise analysis and adjustment of weight distribution along the shaft to minimize vibrations and ensure smooth operation. At OHP Service Spain, we use advanced instrumentation and precision equipment to perform dynamic balancing with meticulous attention to the precise balancing degree required for the rotational speed, weight, and drivetrain configuration of the cardan shaft.
