Acoustic solutions for the automotive industry

The challenges we address

Noise & vibration (NVH)

Cabin acoustic comfort and isolation of engine and rolling-noise sources. Without the combustion engine to mask them, these sources become a central concern on electric vehicles.

Material qualification

Validating the acoustic performance of trim and absorbers, from JCAL and Biot properties through to simulation-ready input data.

Production quality control

Fast detection of nonconformities on the line and supplier validation, from benchmarking to end-of-line testing.

Our solutions for the automotive industry

Our featured instruments

Acoustic test cabin

Acoustic test cabin

ASTM C423 · SAE J2883 · ISO 15186 · 250 to 10 kHz

Measure absorption and transmission loss of trim, headliners, and seals to hit cabin-noise targets before tooling.

Mecanum high frequency impedance and transmission tube - For electriv vehicule and eVTOL - ASTM E1050 ISO 10534-2

High-frequency impedance tube

ASTM E1050 · ISO 10534-2 · 300 to 10 kHz

Mecanum Oberst beam - Damping properties of viscoelastic materials across temperature and frequency - Young’s modulus, shear modulus, damping loss factor

Oberst beam

ASTM E756 · ISO 6721 · SAE J1637 · 5 to 5000 Hz

Qualify damping treatments that cut structural noise, squeaks, and rattles across the temperatures a vehicle actually sees.
