Noise and vibration from machinery

Manufacturers of machinery and devices are encountering increasing demands for low-noise products. These demands are coming from both the users and environmental legislation.

Destructive noise

The legal requirements are essentially founded on personal safety. The purpose is to avoid physical injuries due to noise and vibrations.

Noise and vibration affect job satisfaction

Users of machines are increasingly becoming aware of the effect of noise and vibration on health and well-being. For this reason, the acoustic noise and vibration from machines has become a significant factor.

The acoustic noise level and degree of vibration from the machine often form a natural part of a purchase agreement.

Noise and vibration from as early as the conceptual phase

DELTA offers advice and measurement of acoustic noise and vibration from machinery and devices from the conceptual phase to the finished product. We will help set up the relevant requirements, which often subsequently form part of purchase agreements.

Verification measurement and documentation

DELTA carries out measurements in its own laboratory or on-site in the operating environment. The measurements are carried out as accredited measurements, and a report provides documentation that the relevant requirements have been met. This enables the product to obtain approval and access to the market.

We know what we are talking about

DELTA has very wide experience in measuring, documenting and solving the problems of noise and vibration from machinery.

We have modern, accredited testing equipment at our disposal and are accredited to carry out measurements in a range of areas. We have testing facilities and staff in Denmark, both in Jutland and on Zealand.
