Balancing Rotating Fixtures For Turning Operations on a Lathe Formulas and Calculator

Manufacturing fixtures rotating at a high speed require balancing. Often it is assumed that the center of gravity of the work piece and fixture and of the counterbalancing masses are in the same plane; however, this is not usually the case. Counterbalancing masses are required in two separate planes to prevent excessive vibration or bearing loads at high speeds.
