Need a Shop that can balance rotating assemblies

I'm in Cincinnati, OH.

Looking for a somewhat local place that can do this kind of work. I'd be willing to drive a couple hours one way.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Nothing from anyone?

Ok, what about non-local? What companies do you have experience with?

What are you balancing? What speed?

Turbo rebuilders can or have places to balance small high speed stuff. Driveshaft fabricators can do bigger stuff. Any bigger and you need to find a machine shop service.

I know jackson machine does balanced rotating assemblies but I dunno if he has experience with a rotary. I'd image the process is almost the same just different tools are used.
