Portable devices for measuring and balancing
Vibration measurement, vibration analysis, balancing in operating condition
Hofmann's portable devices enable high-precision measurement and analysis of vibrations directly during operation. They provide reliable data for a quick and targeted assessment of machine conditions and help to efficiently correct imbalances. Thanks to their intuitive operation and simple handling, they are easy to learn and immediately ready for use. This ensures the long-term performance of your machines and increases process reliability in day-to-day operations.
From mobile vibration measuring devices to high-end operational balancing devices
Portable devices for every machine size and requirement
The portable devices from Hofmann cover the entire spectrum of vibration measurement and balancing. The MC 1100 reliably measures effective vibration velocities, the condition of roller bearings, speed, temperature and belt frequency. With the EasyBalancer EB 3500, grinding wheels can be precisely balanced directly in the grinding machine under operating conditions. The MiniBalancer MI 2500 enables rotating machines to be balanced in one or two planes during operation. The VibroLyzer VL 8000 offers advanced functions for vibration measurement, vibration analysis and machine diagnostics to meet the highest demands.
