Turbo Equipment
At Turbo Diesel Services, we use the latest technology and turbocharger equipment to ensure the best possible service for our customers.
Turbo Technics VSR 500 & VSR 420 Series
The Vibration Sorting Rig (VSR™) was initially introduced in 1984 as a solution to address the issue of high-speed vibration in turbochargers installed in passenger cars. Its purpose was to accurately measure and analyze vibrations occurring within the entire rotating assembly, replicating the speed conditions experienced by the turbocharger in the vehicle. Specifically designed for high-volume Original Equipment (OE) and Aftermarket Production, the VSR 500™ series offers a range of features tailored to meet the requirements of turbo production on a larger scale. In addition to the VSR 500™ model, three distinct variations are available to cater to the diverse needs of turbo production.
Turbo Technics
VSR 500 Series
- Speed capability up to 150,000 rev/min
- In-line core loading suitable for large and heavy cores
- Rotor lock that stops the shaft from turning during balance corrections, either using the integral grinder or ‘turning’ the compressor wheel
- Automatic door - automatically opens when the test is complete
- Automatic test cycle - the test starts when the door is closed, the door automatically opens when the test is complete
- Oil mist extraction - which uses a vacuum to extract oil mist created by the higher volume of tests the VSR 5 is capable of
Turbo Technics
VSR 420 Series
- Speed capability up to 300,000 rev/min
- Second cutter - for 2-plane balance correction, used by OE turbo manufactures to allow balance correction to be made on the impeller as well as the nose nut. This enables the CHRA to be balanced to very tight tolerances. The second cutter is operated by the foot pedal and activates a rotor lock that stops the shaft from turning during balance corrections
- Automatic test cycle – the test starts when the door is closed, the door automatically opens when the test is complete
- Oil mist extraction - which uses a vacuum to extract oil mist created by the higher volume of tests the VSR4 is capable of
- Automatic length set – a sliding base automatically moves the speed sensor to the correct position, a special cutter is mounted to the base. This hand operated cutter replaces the handheld grinder and allows for very precise cuts to be made to the nose nut that give the appearance of an OE turbocharger
