Balancing Services

TigerTek is fully equipped to provide precise balancing for shafts, fans, and your most complex rotating needs.  Your exact RPM is entered into our computer so that we balance your equipment for optimum performance. Our high tech, computerized balancing equipment can assist in prolonging the life of your equipment.

Vibration analysis can be used to define a specific problem with an individual piece of machinery, or as an important preventive maintenance tool.

A vibration analysis test can quickly give you a specific problem report. This will enable you to make some educated decisions on how best to proceed.  Potential equipment failures can be resolved before they occur.

Infrared thermal imaging offers a fast, easy-to-use, non-contact method of measuring temperatures and observing heat flow patterns. In just a few seconds, a thermal imager can generate a map of temperatures and identify hot spots.

A TigerTek technician will visit your plant with the necessary thermal imaging equipment. He will meet with you to define the plant areas to image. He will then take the necessary readings and provide you with a detailed printed report of his findings. Hot spots will be clearly identified for corrective action.

Thermal imaging will quickly show problem areas that could be the source of machinery failures, or even potential fire hazards.

Correct shaft alignment is required to avoid costly premature equipment breakdowns. TigerTek will send a fully equipped, laser alignment specialist to your plant. He will quickly setup, perform the necessary tests, take the necessary corrective measures (shimming, re-positioning jack-bolts, etc) and then certify that the system is in full alignment.

Even small misalignment's between rotating shafts will cause shafts to flex. This flexing or elastic bending as they rotate exerts abnormal forces on the bearings, couplings, and the shafts themselves. These forces lead to premature failures.

Some typical problems would include:

•     Premature bearing
•     Seal and coupling failure
•     Excessive vibration
•     High bearing temperatures
•     Excessive oil leakage at seals
•     Loose foundation bolts
•     Excessive coupling temperatures and wear
•     Shafts breaking at the inboard bearing

In addition, in electric motors, this flexing alters the gap between the stator and rotor affecting their performance. TigerTek can take care of avoiding these problems for you.
