Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 21940-21 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 108, Mechanical vibration, shock and condition
monitoring, Subcommittee SC 2, Measurement and evaluation of mechanical vibration and shock as applied
to machines, vehicles and structures.
This first edition of ISO 21940-21 cancels and replaces ISO 2953:1999, of which it constitutes an editorial
(standards.iteh.ai)
revision. The main change is that for all definitions, reference is made to ISO 1925. Additionally, the Scope
has been reworded in order to exactly reflect what this part of ISO 21940 is dealing with. Furthermore, some
rough rounding in the numbers given in the Tables ISOhas21940-21:2012
been smoothened, and some Figures drawn more
exactly. https://standards.iteh.ai/catalog/standards/sist/9e88e8a3-066f-4ac1-87ff-

Mechanical vibration — Rotor balancing —

Part 21:
Description and evaluation of balancing machines
1 Scope
This part of ISO 21940 specifies requirements for evaluating the performance of machines for balancing
rotating components by the following tests:
a) test for minimum achievable residual unbalance, Umar test;
b) test for unbalance reduction ratio, URR test;
c) test for couple unbalance interference on single-plane machines;
d) compensator test.
(standards.iteh.ai)
These tests are performed during acceptance of a balancing machine and also later, on a periodic basis, to
ensure that the balancing machine is capable of handling the actual balancing tasks. For periodic tests,
ISO 21940-21:2012
simplified procedures are specified. Tests for other machine capacities and performance parameters, however,
are not contained in this part of ISO 21940.
02819ae7f98e/iso-21940-21-2012
For these tests, three types of specially prepared proving rotors are specified, covering a wide range of
applications on horizontal and vertical balancing machines. An annex describes recommended modifications
of proving rotors prepared in acccordance with ISO 2953:1985.[2]
Moreover, this part of ISO 21940 also stresses the importance attached to the form in which the balancing
machine characteristics are specified by the manufacturer. Adoption of the format specified enables users to
compare products from different manufacturers. Additionally, in an annex, guidelines are given on the
information by which users provide their data and requirements to a balancing machine manufacturer.
This part of ISO 21940 is applicable to balancing machines that support and rotate rotors with rigid behaviour
at balancing speed and that indicate the amounts and angular locations of a required unbalance correction in
one or more planes. Therefore, it is applicable to rotors with rigid behaviour as well as to rotors with shaft-
elastic behaviour balanced in accordance with low-speed balancing procedures. It covers both soft-bearing
balancing machines and hard-bearing balancing machines. Technical requirements for such balancing
machines are included; however, special features, such as those associated with automatic correction, are
excluded.
This part of ISO 21940 does not specify balancing criteria; such criteria are specified in ISO 1940-1[1] and
ISO 11342[3] (only low-speed balancing procedures apply).

NOTE 1 The occasional overload force is only stated for the lowest balancing speed. It is the maximum force per support that can be
accommodated by the machine without immediate damage.
The negative force is the static upward force resulting from a rotor having its centre of mass outside the bearing support.
NOTE 2 Cycle rate for a given balancing speed is the number of starts and stops which the machine can perform per hour without
damage to the machine when balancing a rotor of the maximum moment of inertia.
NOTE 3 In general, for rotors with rigid behaviour with two correction planes, one-half of the stated value pertains to each plane; for
disc-shaped rotors, the full stated value holds for one plane.
NOTE 4 Limits for soft-bearing machines are generally stated in gram millimetres per kilogram (specific unbalance, g·mm/kg), since
this value represents a measure of rotor displacement and, therefore, motion of the balancing machine bearings. For hard-bearing
machines, the limits are generally stated in gram millimetres (g·mm), since these machines are usually factory calibrated to indicated
unbalance in such units (see Clause 6). For two-plane machines, this is the result obtained when the minimum achievable residual
unbalance is distributed between the two planes.

A combination of large journal diameter and high balancing speed can result in an excessive journal
