Method for dynamically balancing an article and dynamically balanced article

1. A method for dynamically balancing an unbalanced article about a rotary axis, the method comprising:

determining a mass and a position of a corrective weight, the mass and position of the corrective weight being configured to at least partly correct an imbalance in the unbalanced article that is generated when the unbalanced article is rotated about the rotary axis;

rotating the unbalanced article; and

intermittently spraying an atomized liquid or molten material toward a surface of the unbalanced article while the unbalanced article is rotating to form the corrective weight that is fixedly coupled to the unbalanced article.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the atomized liquid or molten material comprises a plasma.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the atomized liquid or molten material at least partly solidifies before impacting the unbalanced article.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the sprayed atomized liquid or molten material forms discrete particles that bond to one another via mechanical hooking.

5. A rotationally balanced article comprising:

an unbalanced article having a rotational imbalance when the unbalanced article is rotated about a predefined rotary axis; and

a balance weight that is mechanically adhered to the unbalanced article, the balance weight having a mass and being positioned on the unbalanced article at a location that at least partly attenuates the rotational imbalance;

wherein the balance weight is formed of a plurality of discrete particles that have accumulated on the unbalanced article and interlocked to the unbalanced article and one another, and wherein the rotationally balanced article does not have any heat-affected zones where the balance weight is mechanically adhered to the unbalanced article.

6. The rotationally balanced article of claim 5 , wherein the discrete particles are formed of metal.
