The design of shaking-moment-balanced linkages still is challenging. Considering moment balance in the very beginning of the design process of mechanisms is important for finding applicable solutions. For this purpose, the method of principal vectors is investigated, showing a compact notation of the angular momentum with respect to the center of mass. The moment-balance conditions are derived for three links in series from which balance solutions are synthesized and illustrated. The application for moment balancing of a 4R four-bar linkage is shown. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013.
