Inc. We're Driveline Specialists serving the western United States driveline needs for over 40 years. We specialize in high speed dynamic balancing of the final assembled drivelines. If your shaft is not balanced correctly, you have not fixed the potential vibration problems. Our shops feature the latest in driveline balancing equipment. Using the correct equipment to straighten and balance drivelines is key to a smooth and vibration-fee operation.
Some shops use lathes to balance a driveline.
While lathes are great for machining parts or making table legs, they do not balance drivelines very well. A lathe will hold a driveline rigid while a balancer will let the driveline float in a free-floating carrier. Our shafts are, after assembly and before welding, pre-straighten to better then manufacturers specifications. We then dynamically high speed balance the entire shaft assembly at the speed representative of the speed the shaft will encounter in its normal application.
