flywheel match balancing
flywheel match balancing
(OP)
Hello forum,
I am experiencing a rather unique engineering quandary. I need to have an externally balanced (Detroit style) flywheel match balanced (or rather out of balance) to an existing external balanced flex plate. The flex plate and flywheel orient to the cranshaft output flange in a singular fashion. Could I mount the flex plate and the flywheel back to front of each other on a dynamic balance machine and remove/add material to the flywheel until the two zero balanced? Is there a simpler method?
Thanks,
Armand
