Vibration in operating machinery and production lines can be caused by unbalance in rotating equipment, worn and defective parts, incorrect or out-of-spec installation, and other factors. As a result, the vibration can damage your equipment, compromise its safety, shorten its life expectancy, generate very high noise levels, and reduce work quality.

      Hofmann offers portable field balancers and vibration analyzers that enable you to measure vibration and unbalance in machinery, onsite and real work situations. Using the test results, you can determine the causes of vibration, as well as the amount of unbalance, then correct them as needed. Designed for a variety of field conditions, each unit includes a backlit screen and durable keypad with covered, membrane-type switches. They operate on either ac or rechargeable battery power.
