Our correction capabilities include hand grinding, drilling, milling, and welding as well as bolt on or clip weights for fans and blowers.

They carry a 30 day warranty and can be offered with an industry leading windows based software that carries a 10 year warranty.
We also offer calibration and service of balancing machines that we have sold and all brands of customer owned balancing machines. When our trained technicians arrive at your facility they will complete a full inspection of your machine. We will point out wear items that need repaired or replaced. We will help provided instructions and or quotes to replace these items if needed. We will provide an as found report of your machines current accuracy level and specify whether or not it was within manufactures specifications by using one of our 22 test rotors with NIST traceable weights. We will then complete a full calibration per manufactures procedures. Subsequent accuracy testing will be completed to ensure that the machine is capable of meeting all exacting balancing tolerances. Additional ISO compliant testing and ARP certifications can be completed at your request.
Once calibration and testing is complete we will then work with your machine operators to balance some of your specific parts. This will allow us to use our 60+ years of balancing experience to simplify your balancing process. We will help with correction appearance, machine set up accuracy and demonstrate electronic features that your operators may not know are available to them. We will give your operators a way to prove the accuracy of your balancing machine prior to part balancing. This will insure that you are producing the highest quality balancing for your production line or your customers.
A few other areas include balancing machine repair, electronics upgrade, operator training, used parts for sale, and on site balancing. We are always looking to purchase any unused balancing machines you may have that are no longer needed.
