I think that both sections of the shaft are

balanced by the outside counterweight I will
try
to
balance it by the same way from the rear and
front.
I don't know if it will work but I have a good
feeling
about it!
I do have the angle sensor I will try with
your
design
Thanks a lot!

At least one of the balance weights needs to be
repositioned.
Both must be exactly opposite the rotor. If you
set
the e-shaft
up some how on perfectly horizontal knife edges
so
it is free to
rotate you can then statically balance the
assembly
(e-shaft, rotor
& balance weights) out side of the rotor and end
housings.

I will make a static and a dynamic balance.
First I will let the shaft turn to it heaviest
point(on knife edges,like you said),turn it 90
degree,weigh it and calculate the momentum.
After I will just have to add or remove metal on
one
of the balance weight to reach the exact
calculated
momentum.For a fine tuning I'll make turn by
someone
who is equiped for that kind of work
Thanks
Frank
Yes! Dynamic balance. I forgot to mention the
couple.
Here is a diagram on the subject.
