Noise & vibration performance optimization for heavy equipment

Noise & Vibration

Optimize noise and vibration performance to increase the comfort and safety of operators, passengers, and bystanders and to comply with market-mandatory regulations. By providing a comprehensive set of advanced NVH and acoustic simulation and testing solutions, we help engineers calculate load transfer, optimize ride and in-cabin noise comfort, and validate the final prototype for ISO certification.

The noise and vibration performance of your heavy equipment design affects the quality of the product in many ways. Inside the cabin, it will directly influence the driver’s comfort and safety, and therefore overall job performance and productivity. In many cases, noise levels in the working environment are strictly regulated. On the other hand, what happens outside is important as well. Heavy equipment and handheld tools both have to face tough standards in today’s markets. To deal with such a wide variety of interior and exterior problems, engineering departments require a very comprehensive set of simulation and testing solutions. These should be capable of handling target setting, product design, refinement, final prototype validation, certification, troubleshooting and more. Siemens Digital Industries Software simulation and testing solutions help engineers spot resonances and noise sources, even the most unexpected ones. This dedicated noise and vibration solutions portfolio includes, among others, advanced acoustic testing procedures for noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) target setting and load transfer calculations, and 3D simulation software for ride comfort and interior cabin comfort optimization. Our testing solutions also support final prototype validation for market-ready, next-generation products that require ISO certification.
