TASK 72-41-10-440-003-F00 HPC Rotor Assembly - Do A Balance Check Of The Rotor Assembly And Install The Blades, Assembly-003 - SBE 72-0304
General
This TASK gives the procedure to do a balance check of the HP compressor rotor assembly (SBE 72-0304 standard) and install the blades.
The procedure to measure, assemble and balance the HP compressor rotor assembly is given in the subsequent TASKs.
TASK 72-41-10-440-001 (ASSEMBLY-001, CONFIG-001) Measure the HP compressor rotor assembly parts.
TASK 72-41-10-440-002 (ASSEMBLY-002, CONFIG-002) Assemble the HP compressor rotor assembly.
TASK 72-41-10-440-004 (ASSEMBLY-004, CONFIG-002) Grind the tips of the HP compressor blades.
TASK 72-41-10-440-005 (ASSEMBLY-005, CONFIG-002) Final balance the HP compressor rotor assembly.
Fig/item numbers in parentheses in the procedure agree with those used in the IPC. Only the primary Fig/item numbers are used. For the service bulletin alpha variants refer to the IPC.
For all parts identified in a different Chapter/Section/Subject, the applicable Chapter/Section/Subject comes before the Fig/item numbers.
Overhaul processes referred to in the procedure by the TASK/SUBTASK number are in SPM.
For standard torque data and procedure refer to SPM TASK 70-41-00-400-501, SPM TASK 70-41-01-400-501 and SPM TASK 70-41-02-410-501.
Special torque data is identified with the symbol * after the torque value.
Special assembly tolerances are included in this procedure.
Lubricate all threads and mating faces of nuts and bolts with CoMat 10-077 APPROVED ENGINE OILS, unless other lubricants are referred to in the procedure.
All the curvic teeth and mating faces must be cleaned with CoMat 01-001 SOLVENT, DELETEDor CoMat 01-002 SOLVENT, DELETED.before assembly. Refer to SPM TASK 70-11-01-300-503. They must also be dry assembled unless told differently in the procedure.
All of the temporary marks made in this procedure must be removed after completion of this task.
When stage 7 and stage 8 blades are installed in the disk, the L shaped stage 7 rear and stage 8 front sealing wires HPC Stage 3 - 8 Drum Disk And Wire Seals (72-41-11, 01-392 and HPC Stage 3 - 8 Drum Disk And Wire Seals72-41-11, 01-394) and stage 7 front and stage 8 rear sealing wires HPC Stage 3 - 8 Drum Disk And Wire Seals (72-41-11, 01-390 and HPC Stage 3 - 8 Drum Disk And Wire Seals72-41-11, 01-396) must be installed during all build procedures, that is gapping, balancing and rotor-tip grind. This is because the height of the wire retainer tip of the drum is decreased so that the L shaped wire can be installed. If the wire is not installed, the amount of movement of the blades is increased.
Data to balance.
The tools used in this procedure are used to adapt the HP compressor rotor assembly to the 'Schenck HL5' dynamic balancing machine. A balancing speed between 650 and 1000 RPM that gives stable and repeatable results is recommended. The best speed to use will be different for different machines. The correct RPM will usually agree with the gear ratios available. The balancing machine must turn the HP compressor rotor assembly in a clockwise direction (direction of engine turn) when seen from the rear of the engine.
Refer to Figure for an example view of the HP compressor rotor assembly.

Remove the beam sling from the compressor rotor assembly. Refer to Figure.
Remove the universal sling adapters. Refer to Figure.
SUBTASK 72-41-10-440-229 Install the HP Compressor Rotor Assembly in to the Balancing Machine
NOTE
The HP compressor rotor assembly is installed in IAE 1R18059 Trolley.Plane separate and calibrate the balancing machine to read static unbalance. Measure and record the quantity and angular position of the unbalance. Refer to Figure.
Make a mark on CoMat 02-130 POLAR GRAPH PAPERto show the position and quantity of the unbalance. Identify this point as B1. Refer to Figure.
Use CoMat 02-121 TEMPORARY MARKER PENCIL/CRAYON or CoMat 02-122 TEMPORARY MARKER PENCIL/CRAYON to make a mark that identifies the position of the dummy stub shaft in relation to the balancing machine drive head.
Remove the HP compressor rotor assembly from the balancing machine and install it in IAE 1R18059 Trolley. Refer to Step.

Install the compressor rotor assembly in to the balancing machine. Refer to Step. Make sure that the temporary mark on the dummy stub shaft is aligned with the temporary mark on the balancing machine drive head.
NOTE
The 180 degree turn of the compressor rotor assembly is necessary so that the tool unbalance can be removed (calculated).Install the compressor rotor assembly on to the dummy stub shaft, 180 degrees from the original position.
Make a mark on the polar graph paper to show the position of the unbalance. Identify this as B2. Refer to Figure.
NOTE
The angle and amount of static unbalance can be checked by the temporary addition of CoMat 02-181 MODELLING CLAYon the stage 8 disk. This will move point B2 to point B3.Make a vertical line thru point B3. The angle (angle G) measured clockwise from 0 degrees to B2 indicates the angle of static unbalance in the compressor. Write down this value.
If the static unbalance is more than 5.972 ozin (4300 gmm) then disassemble the compressor rotor assembly (refer to TASK 72-41-10-040-001) and examine the problem.
Calculate the correct unbalance in plane B. Refer to Figure.
