A method and an apparatus for accurately measuring an initial imbalance deviating from a predetermined imbalance, when the predetermined imbalance is to be left in a body of rotation. In the method and apparatus, data relating to the predetermined imbalance is stored in a memory 27 as dummy value information. The vibration of a crank shaft 1 during rotation is detected by vibration sensors 6L, 6R to obtain analogue vibration signals WDL, WDR. The rotational angle position of the crank shaft 1 is detected by a photo sensor 8 and, in response, the above described dummy value information is converted to analogue dummy signals DLX, DLY, DRX and DRY by multi D/A converters 12L, 12R, 13L and 13R. These analogue dummy signals are removed from the analogue vibration signals to obtain analogue initial imbalance signals WL, WR, which are converted by D/A converter to obtain the digital initial imbalance value.

1. A method of measuring the rotational imbalance of a test member, comprising: rotating the test member; obtaining an analogue vibration signal by sensing the vibration of the test member; sensing the rotational position of the test member, and simultaneously reading out from a memory digital dummy data, based on the rotational position, which data corresponds to a predetermined imbalance to remain in the test member; converting the digital dummy data into an analogue dummy signal, subtracting the analogue dummy signal from the analogue vibration signal to produce an analogue initial imbalance signal, and converting the analogue initial imbalance signal to a digital initial imbalance signal. 2. A method as claimed in claim 1, further comprising the step of storing in advance digital dummy data for a plurality of different types of test members, and selectively reading out the digital dummy data corresponding to the member being tested. 3. A method as claimed in claim 1, comprising obtaining the dummy data by: adding a dummy weight equivalent in value to a predetermined imbalance to a master test member and balancing the member; removing the dummy weight and rotating the member: sensing the vibration of the member to obtain an analogue vibration signal; and converting the signal to a digital vibration signal. 4. A method as claimed in claim 1 in which the full scale measurable by the analogue-digital converter of the initial imbalance signal corresponds to the approximate maximum value of the initial analogue imbalance signal. 5. A method as claimed in claim 1, comprising dividing the analogue dummy signal into components corresponding to orthogonal vibration directions produced by a sine wave and a cosine wave signal respectively. 6. Apparatus for measuring the rotational imbalance of a test member comprising: a rotational support portion for supporting the test member; means for rotating the member; a rotation sensor arranged to detect the rotational angular position of the test member and produce a position signal; a vibrating sensor arranged to detect the amount of vibration of the member through the support portion and produce an analogue vibration signal; a memory storing digital dummy data corresponding to a predetermined imbalance to remain in the member; a digital to analogue converter for converting the digital dummy data read from the memory, based on the rotational position from the rotation sensor, into an analogue dummy signal; a wave synthesizing circuit arranged to receive the analogue vibration signal from the vibration sensor, and the analogue dummy signal from the digital to analogue converter, and to subtract the dummy signal from the vibration signal to produce an analogue initial imbalance signal; and an analogue to digital converter arranged to receive the analogue initial imbalance signal from the wave synthesizing circuit and convert the analogue initial imbalance signal into a digital initial imbalance signal. 7. Apparatus as claimed in claim 6, in which the digital to analogue converter comprises a first multi digital to analogue converter arranged to produce a cosine wave signal from the digital dummy data corresponding to one directional component of vibration, and a second digital to analogue converter arranged to produce a sine wave signal from the digital dummy data corresponding to a second directional component of vibration being orthogonal to the first directional component. 8. Apparatus as claimed in claim 6 in which the means for rotating the test member comprises an electric motor.
