Universal Balancing's pickup transducers help manufacturer overcome magnetic interference

Universal Balancing

Pickup transducers

When Nidec SR Drives (NSRD) experienced problems with the balancing of magnetic components, Universal Balancing supplied the company with a tailored system.

NSRD, an engineering and technology provider in the field of advanced electrical machines, had been commissioned to develop and manufacture a high-powered interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor for a customer that manufactures hybrid power systems for commercial vehicles.

In developing the motor, NSRD had experienced problems when attempting to balance a rotor on a non-Universal Balancing machine, as the rotor contained powerful rare-earth magnets and the magnetic fields were interfering with the pickup signals.

Universal Balancing’s pickup transducers, because they are not affected by magnetism as standard, offered a stock solution and the company supplied these along with Winbal specialist correction software, which helped NSRD to solve its problem.
