NONEProcedure
Keep material removal to the minimum to get balace within limits.
Do not remove material from a small number of areas. Remove material over a larger number, with less removal, to permit more rebalancing procedure.
Refer to: Figure
Initial unbalance must not be more than a maximum of 5 ozin (3600 gmm) when attached on diameter B and plane A.
Remaining unbalance must not be more than a maximum of 0.50 ozin (360 gmm).
The direction of turn on the vertical balancing machine can be set in two directions, clockwise or counterclockwise.
Do the check for actual static unbalance of the stage 3 turbine air seal at 900 RPM minimum.
SUBTASK 72-50-33-350-075 Rebalance the Stage 3 Turbine Air Seal
NOTE
Make sure, that dimensions are within the limits, given in Figure.
Use the horizontal rotating table, vernier caliper and radius gage.
Dimensionally examine the machined areas.
