METHOD FOR REDUCING AN IMBALANCE OF A PROJECTILE SHELL

The invention relates to a method for reducing an imbalance of a projectile shell. The projectile shell has a body (1) which has a recess (4). By this recess (4), the body is provided with an inner wall (2) and an outer wall (3). In addition, a mouth hole (6) is provided, which is connected to the r...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for reducing an imbalance of a projectile shell. The projectile shell has a body (1) which has a recess (4). By this recess (4), the body is provided with an inner wall (2) and an outer wall (3). In addition, a mouth hole (6) is provided, which is connected to the recess (4). A central axis (5) is now calculated from the outer geometrical shape of the projectile shell and a measurement is then performed to ascertain an imbalance of the projectile shell. On the basis of the measured imbalance, modified axis (8) is then calculated in relation to the central axis (5), and the body (1) is rotated about the modified axis (8) on the basis of the calculated modified axis (8). As the body (1) is rotated in this way, the projectile shell is machined to eliminate the imbalance as far as possible.
