Fundamentals of Jet Engine Balancing |
| This course provides a practical approach to
balancing. By combining balancing theory with hands-on
session, attendees receive a solid and well-rounded
foundation to apply to their jet engine balancing
applications. The course focuses on defining and
identifying the different types of unbalance from both
theoretical and practical approaches, proper balancing
machine setup and operation, improving unbalance correction
methods, and reducing errors during the balancing process.
