Rotor unbalance – a common cause of machine failure
Rotor unbalance is the second most common cause of machine damage after bearing wear. It can be caused by mechanical defects, operating loads, or thermal changes.
While worn bearings can only be replaced, rotor unbalance can often be corrected without dismantling the equipment – by on-site balancing, a method for correcting vibrations in rotating machinery.
Previously, this required complex and expensive vibration analyzers that could only be operated by highly qualified specialists. Vibromera has changed this with the development of the Balanset-1A.
What tasks is Balanset-1A ideal for?
1. On-site balancing (without dismantling)
Fans, pumps, compressors, electric motors, turbines. Reduce vibrations directly on the equipment.
2. Modernization of balancing machines
Replace outdated measuring systems on soft and hard-bearing stands and bring your old equipment up to date.
3. Diagnostics & Technical Maintenance
Regular vibration control, spectral analysis, and identification of bearing and support defects.
4. Service & Emergency Operations
Quick balancing and diagnostics in case of increased vibrations or after repairs to minimize downtime.
5. Post-repair balancing
Quickly restore balance after replacing bearings or major repairs.
6. Production & Testing
Balancing of new parts and assemblies in production lines and on test benches.

Professional capability — without the premium price
The Balanset-1A costs about half of comparable professional balancers — not because it measures worse, but because we removed the costs that don't help you balance.
Modern MEMS sensors
We use industrial MEMS accelerometers instead of piezo sensors that cost €300–900 each. In the balancing range of rigid rotors (5–1000 Hz) they deliver the same amplitude and phase accuracy — for a fraction of the price.
Your laptop, not a built-in PC
The computing runs on a standard Windows laptop most service engineers already carry. You don't pay several thousand euros for a proprietary screen and processor you would rarely need.
Direct from the maker
We sell straight to you. Every reseller in the chain adds 20–40 %; removing them is exactly what keeps the price roughly half of branded equivalents.
Accuracy where balancing needs it — phase, amplitude and ISO compliance — is untouched. You pay for the result, not for a brand and extra hardware.
How Balanset-1A compares
Fast two-plane field balancing plus basic diagnostics — at the cost of access to the task itself.
| Balanset-1A | Typical professional balancer | Premium monitoring platform | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Indicative price | €1,975 complete kit | ~ $3,500–7,000 | €10,000+ (often on request) |
| Two-plane field balancing | ✓ | often a higher tier | ✓ |
| Complete kit in the box | sensors, tachometer, scale, stand, case | often extra-cost options | varies |
| Open, published price | ✓ | frequently quote-only | frequently quote-only |
| Software subscription | none | varies | often required |
| Support | direct from the developers | via reseller | corporate channel |
One or two field sessions — or a single prevented bearing failure — typically pays back the device. No software subscription, ever.

How balancing with Balanset-1A works
Four straightforward steps take you from measuring vibration to a balanced rotor.
Mount the sensors
Attach the vibration sensors and the laser tachometer to the machine. No disassembly needed.
Measure the run-out
Run the rotor and let the software record the initial vibration and phase across both planes.
Add trial weights
Follow the guided prompts to add trial weights; the software calculates the exact correction.
Verify the result
Apply the correction weights and confirm the residual vibration meets your ISO balancing grade.

What our customers say
"The results are excellent! Today I balanced a huge sugar fiberizer weighing 24 tons at 747 rpm. The initial vibration was 3.2, after balancing it was 0.47 mm/s. Balanset is a game changer!"
"The first results exceeded expectations: the vibration dropped from 21.5 mm/s to 1.51 mm/s — an improvement of more than 4 times! The technical support helped at every step. Now I'm expanding my balancing services in my region."
"Without your help, I wouldn't have managed! I was working on a complex crusher. Initially, the vibration was over 100 mm/s, after balancing I reached 16-18 mm/s. Now the machine runs 'like new'!"

An honest fit — what Balanset-1A is, and what it isn't
We would rather you buy the right tool. Here is where the Balanset-1A excels — and where another class of device is the better choice.
Ideal for
- On-site two-plane balancing of rigid rotors in their own bearings
- Fans, pumps, crushers, mulchers, turbines, spindles, electric motors and agricultural rotors
- Post-repair balancing and fast service call-outs
- Basic vibration diagnostics before balancing — overall level, 1×, FFT spectrum, waveform
- Documented results to ISO 21940-11 and ISO 20816
Not the right tool if you need
- ATEX-certified equipment for explosive zones
- A fully sealed (IP65) rugged standalone unit — the laptop-free Balanset-AR covers part of this
- Wideband bearing diagnostics and route-based condition monitoring — a different class of analyzer
- Multi-bearing or driveshaft rotors — see Balanset-4
For balancing at running speed (1×), MEMS sensors match piezo accuracy; piezo only pulls ahead for high-frequency bearing analysis, which is a condition-monitoring task, not balancing.
