As your vehicle’s engine starts to operate, it creates torsional vibration that can affect its operation and the vehicle’s performance as well. Hence, the said vibration has to be dampened. And the best way to do this is to employ a harmonic balancer. Otherwise known as torsional damper, crank pulley damper, or vibration damper, the harmonic balancer is a mechanism that’s connected to the engine’s crankshaft to significantly trim down torsional vibration. This device can help extend the service life of your vehicle’s engine by preventing or reducing wear on the main journals and main bearings as well as thwarting crankshaft failure.
When the cylinders start to fire, torque is passed on to the crankshaft. The front portion of the crankshaft takes the impact of the said power so it usually moves before the crankshaft’s rear. This is what causes a twisting motion. As the power is taken off the front, the shaft that’s halfway twisted will unwind and will snap back in reverse direction. And eventhough the said unwinding process is just small, it produces torsional vibration. So to put off the said vibration, a harmonic balancer is installed to the crankshaft’s front part. This vibration damper is basically made up of two elements – the mass and the energy dissipating elements. The mass is responsible for resisting the acceleration of the vibration while the energy dissipating element is the one that takes in the vibrations.
The automotive harmonic balancer consists of three components. Its inner part is the one that’s fastened to the crankshaft while the center component is the rubber ring dampening the crankshaft vibration. The damper’s outer part has timing marks as well as pulley cuts for the belts. As the power coming from the cylinder strikes the front portion of the crankshaft, it attempts to twist the heavy portion of the harmonic balancer. However, it often ends up twisting the discs or the rubber connecting the damper’s two components.
If you think your Mitsubishi harmonic balancer is starting to work inefficiently, the timing marks will drift. Age is the first factor that causes malfunctioning of the harmonic balancer. Deterioration of its components is also another cause. Whenever your Mitsubishi harmonic balancer fails, get top-quality replacement at Parts Train.
