This one-day seminar covers balancing theory as applied to flexible rotors. Real life examples are used to show how turbine shafts, paper rolls, and other rotors that change shape below their service speed, are dynamically straightened and balanced.

While there is some review of fundamental balancing principles, it is assumed that the attendee has a firm understanding of these principles as applied to rigid rotors. Vibration Solutions Balancing Theory & Applications is not a prerequisite but, it is encouraged that attendees have completed this, or a similar, course.

•	Tolerance specifications for rigid & flexible rotors
•	Making corrections in 3 planes
•	Whip reduction methods
•	Critical bending modes for soft-bearing and hard-bearing machines
•	Weight vs. speed considerations
•	Balancing above and below resonance
