A balance shaft is designed to vibrate and rotate in such a way that it can reduce the vibration produced by an engine. Balance shafts are frequently used for engine refinement. A tow shaft is being utilized by four cylinder engines which goes in opposite directions on either side of engine's crankshaft. A single balance shaft is used in three cylinder and V6 engines. The balance shaft is a complex part of automotive which needs to be designed precisely. This is to make sure that it is compatible with the engines and its system. The material casted off to manufacture balance shafts plays a dynamic role in contributing to its overall weight. Most original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) utilize aluminum balance shafts for reduced weight and additional strength. The automotive engine especially those having with asymmetric design, experiences a second level of vibration. Also, the well-balanced engines with asymmetric design experience the second level vibration. The automotive balance shaft is integrated with the vehicle engines for offsetting the vibration effect that the engine creates. Forged balance shafts are compact, lighter and can inherent damping more effectively as compared with casted balance shafts.

Encoders (rotary systems) are measuring systems for sensing the position, angle, speed, and velocity on machines. Encoders can electronically monitor the position of a rotating shaft. They provide position control in packaging, robotics, pick and place, lead/ball screw, rotary table positioning, and component insertion applications. Encoders are critical elements in a motion system, as they provide position and velocity feedback to the motion controller, enabling the controller to close the control loop.

Sealants and adhesives are one of the essential components in solar panel, wind turbines, and fuel cells. Solar panel adhesives help reduce assembly cost. They also facilitate in achieving high volume manufacturing goals. For instance, currently, renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic modules are burdened by high costs in terms of assembly and material. Higher production volumes of solar panels and automated adhesive assembly are expected to provide cost reduction in the next few years. Thus, adhesives play a vital role during the process of manufacturing and installation in the solar industry. Adhesives eliminate the need for mechanical fasteners such as screws and U-bolts, and further aid in complete removal of stress points caused by these fasteners. They also provide durability, long-lasting protection, and structural strength to the solar panel due to their characteristic features such as high thermal and electrical management and resistance against UV rays.
