Shaft Straightening Machines & Automatic Straightening Equipment

Precision straightening for bars, shafts and tubular components

Balance & Test delivers high-precision shaft straightening machines and automatic straightening equipment for industrial applications. Our PLC-controlled systems are designed for accuracy, efficiency, and reliability—ideal for bars, shafts, and tubes in demanding production environments.

Straightener

Configured Around Your Application

Straightening force, measurement points and correction strategies are selected based on the component and specification. Each machine is configured to suit the application, rather than forcing the application to fit the machine.

Why Balance & Test Straightening Machines

Proven Measurement Accuracy

Balance & Test straightening machines deliver high, repeatable measurement accuracy, supporting quality-critical components and demanding production environments. Precise run-out measurement forms the foundation for consistent straightening results.

PLC-Based Control Architecture

Measurement, control logic and correction calculations are handled directly within the PLC. This reduces system complexity, improves long-term reliability, and ensures stable performance in continuous production use.

Built for Production Environments

Machines are engineered with simplicity and robustness at their core. From mechanical design to control systems, every element is intended for long service life in industrial manufacturing conditions.

Flexible Automation Options

Straightening machines can be configured for manual loading, semi-automatic operation or fully automated production. This flexibility allows systems to match throughput, accuracy and investment requirements.

Easy Line Integration

Systems are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing production lines. Optional additional PLC integration enables compatibility with established control platforms, data collection systems and traceability requirements.

Configured for Your Application

Straightening force, measurement points and correction strategies are selected based on the component and specification. Each machine is configured to suit the application, rather than forcing the application to fit the machine.

PLC-Controlled Accuracy

Our shaft straightening machines utilize advanced PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) technology for real-time measurement and adjustment. The PLC system continuously monitors shaft alignment and automatically makes precise corrections during the straightening process. This ensures every bar, shaft, or tube meets exacting tolerances with minimal manual intervention. With user-friendly digital interfaces, operators can easily set parameters, track performance data, and run diagnostics. The result is faster setup, reduced errors, and consistently high-quality output—making our automatic straightening equipment ideal for demanding, high-volume production environments.
