LORD Corporation’s in-flight propeller balancing ensures minimum vibration at various flight conditions on the C-130 and other turboprop aircraft, allowing for reduced maintenance costs and increased ops tempo. The systems are comprised of sensors, a controller and a fail-safe balancer. The balancer is installed onto the rotating shaft while the sensors monitor vibration. When an increase in vibration is detected above a pre-determined level, the controller instructs the balancer to make an automatic balance correction.
