Method for in-situ balancing of rotatives by use of an on-the-fly pulsating material removal process

Balancing rotating systems is a challenging task, which requires (dis)assembly of the system to enable mass adjustments; thus the development of a method to balance rotatives in-situ (i.e. without disassembly) using pulsed laser ablation (PLA) is a key technology enabler. PLA for in-situ balancing o...
