Refer to: Figure
NOTE
Keep material removal to the minimum to get balance within limits.
Do not remove material from small number of areas. remove material over larger number, with less removal, to permit more rebalancing procedures.
Initial unbalance must not be more than the maximum 5 ozin. (3600 gmm) when attached on diameter B and plane A.
Remaining unbalance must not be more than the maximum 0. 50 ozin. (360 gmm).
The direction of turn on the vertical balancing machine can be set in two directions, clockwise and counterclockwise.
Do the check for actual static unbalance of the turbine air seal at 900 RPM minimum.
SUBTASK 72-50-33-350-132 Rebalance the Turbine Air Seal
Make sure that the dimensions are not more than maximum, refer to Figure.
Use the horizontal rotating table, vernier caliper and radius gage set.
Dimensionally examine the machined areas.
