Is it possible? With determination – YES!
Balancing instruments rightfully occupy a special place among the wide range of equipment used for vibroacoustic measurements. This is largely due to the fact that this class of instruments, in addition to performing metrological functions, also fulfills a technological role. Essentially, it is technological equipment used to reduce the imbalance of rotary mechanisms.

As a result, it offers high economic efficiency, Балансировка насосов allowing for significant quality improvement of products with relatively small capital investments when implementing balancing equipment. This is especially true for industries where a significant amount of rotary equipment is operated or manufactured (e.g., milling enterprises, factories producing fans, etc.).

At such enterprises, the payback period for moderately priced balancing equipment, which ranges from 2500 to 10000 euros, typically does not exceed 6-7 months.

However, there are many small and medium-sized enterprises interested in balancing their own products, for which even these relatively small expenses are burdensome. These enterprises may include auto repair shops, electric motor repair and service facilities, pump and fan repair shops, etc. For them, purchasing balancing equipment at current market prices is often difficult, if not impossible.

For reference, Table 1 provides information on some of the most well-known balancing instruments for rotary equipment currently on the market. As shown in the table, prices for these instruments can vary from 2500 to 25000 euros depending on the manufacturer and their functionality.
