Balancing Machine for Rotors, Turbos and Core Assy, with DUO B Oil Leak Tester

The DUO B is a complete solution that combines the functionalities of the B1R and B1TC into a single machine, enabling the entire turbocharger balancing process to be performed, from the individual rotor to the high-speed core assembly.

Designed to optimize workflow efficiency, the DUO B allows all imbalance measurement and correction operations to be carried out without moving the component between different workstations, reducing processing times, space requirements, and operating costs.

Low-Speed Balancing – B1R Technology

In the first stage, the DUO B operates as a rotor balancing machine, enabling the balancing of:

• Individual turbine shafts
• Individual compressor wheels
• Complete rotors (turbine shaft + compressor wheel)

Thanks to its automatic self-calibration system, the machine independently identifies the geometric characteristics of the component without requiring manual input of dimensional parameters.

This technology makes it possible to:

• Eliminate setup errors
• Reduce setup times
• Standardize the production process
• Increase process repeatability

High-Speed Balancing – B1TC Technology

Once the initial stage is completed, the DUO B allows operators to move directly to high-speed balancing of the core assembly.

The system can reach speeds of up to 250,000 rpm, simulating operating conditions that are extremely close to those experienced by the turbocharger in real applications.

Measurement is performed through highly sensitive vibration analysis, allowing the detection and correction of dynamic imbalances that affect:

• Vibrations
• Noise levels
• Turbocharger reliability
• Component service life

Maximum Operational Flexibility

The DUO B supports both operating modes available on the B1TC:

• Core assembly balancing using dedicated adapters
• Balancing of the core assembly installed in the original turbine housing

This versatility allows the machine to adapt to the needs of both specialized workshops and production environments focused on serial manufacturing.

Production Process Optimization

The integration of both technologies into a single platform provides significant advantages:

• Elimination of transfers between different machines
• Reduced cycle times
• Less workshop floor space required
• A single operating interface
• Improved production efficiency
• Lower investment and maintenance costs

By sharing components, tooling, and operating procedures, the DUO B enables faster and more organized management of the entire turbocharger remanufacturing process.

In Summary

The DUO B is the ideal solution for companies and workshops that want to consolidate all turbocharger balancing operations into a single machine.

From correcting rotor imbalance to performing high-speed dynamic verification of the core assembly, the DUO B delivers precision, reliability, and maximum operational efficiency, providing a complete and fully integrated process.
