The GUNT PT 500.16 - Crank Mechanism Kit is designed to demonstrate the vibration behaviour and mechanical dynamics of crank drives commonly used in compressors and pumps. This system allows the study of oscillating masses, bearing clearance, and harmonic vibrations caused by alternating forces in crank mechanisms. It is ideal for advanced vibration analysis and machinery diagnostics training.
Product Features
- Demonstrates vibration effects caused by oscillating masses and forces in crank drives
- Simulates alternating stresses leading to shock impacts and high-frequency vibration spectra
- Allows adjustment of stroke, mass balance, and bearing clearance on the crosshead
- Speed control through the PT 500 base unit for realistic simulation of operating conditions
- Simulates gas forces in compressors or combustion engines using integrated springs
- High torque experiments achievable by reducing drive motor speed via PT 500.14 belt drive or PT 500.15 gear unit
- Transmission of alternating torque in toothed gearing mechanisms can be studied with PT 500.15 accessory set
- Mounted securely on the base plate of the PT 500 machinery diagnostic base system
- Requires PT 500.04 vibration analyser for measurement and evaluation
- Includes sensors, measuring amplifier, and software for vibration signal analysis
Benefits
- Provides hands-on training in crank mechanism dynamics and vibration effects
- Enables study of bearing clearance, balance, and force transmission
- Simulates realistic machine conditions found in compressors and engines
- Enhances understanding of non-linear vibration phenomena in rotating machinery
