Roller guide RWS 5,000

RWS 5000 2300 kg (5000 lb) Capacity Roller Work Supports for B Series Horizontal Balancing Machines ROLLER WORK SUPPORTS FOR HORIZONTAL AXIS, B SERIES SOFT BEARING BALANCING MACHINES AND MODULAR WORK SUPPORTS DESCRIPTION: The RWS 5000 roller work supports are standard equipment on IRD B50 horizontal axis, soft bearing Balancing Machines. They are also supplied with IRD B50F field fabricated balancing machine kits and IRD B50U balancing machine upgrade kits. These can also be mounted on IRD B20 through B200 balancing machines with an appropriate adjustment of rotor weight capacity. These are precision manufactured roller work supports that use flat, open faced rollers for supporting rotor journals. The flat rollers provide line contact with journals to minimize contact stress on the journals. The work supports pivot freely around a vertical axis. This provides a high degree of horizontal freedom between left and right work supports for balancing. The work supports have a built in height adjustment mechanism that can be used to easily level rotors before balancing. A spanner wrench for raising and lowering the work support height is included. Threaded outrigger posts at the front and rear of the work supports provide vertical stability once the proper height has been set. Two work supports are required to support a rotor. The work supports are available in two different standard roller diameter configurations.
