Abstract

An unbalance measuring station (1) is disclosed toward which a rotor to be balanced is carried by a transport system (7). The station (1) contains an unbalance measurement unit (10) as well as devices (11, 12) for loading the rotor (6) into the unbalance measurement unit. The unit is essentially arranged above the plane of the path of movement of the transport system (7). The unbalance measuring station (1) is particularly suited for use in connection with transfer and assembly lines.
