%ur&oses of BalancingMaking machine elements center of mass or
gravity coincide with their rotating centers
The center of mass of some machine may notcoincide with their rotating centers, the reasons
are: The asymmetry of the structure Uneven distribution of materials Errors in machining , casting and forging

'en!rifugal Force(con!$.)
! 'en!rifugal force is an inertia force and is
actually the body*+s reaction to an e"ternallyapplied force
! $or circular motion the e*!ernal force is knownas centripetal force ,he centripetal force acts on
the particle in a radially inward direction

! 0t should be noted here that the quantity m. r is knownas unbalanceand that centrifugal force is the product of
unbalance and angular velocity squared hileunbalance force (Fcentrifugal) increases rapidly with speed!
