We can listen into the future, however. At least we can if you involve our construction consulting in planning of your machines or plants. We have been experts for many years and are very well familiar with the expected emissions, their causes and the respective solutions. There are diverse possibilities for this constructional noise reduction.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to low-noise working principles and operating methods, this in particular means noise-insulating construction. For example, one can optimise surfaces, geometries and damping of machine parts, prevent surface sound propagation and reduce noise emissions as far as possible. Does that sound good to you right now already? We are looking forward to your call.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Advice on noise and production vibrations during the planning of technical facilities, plants and machines<\/li>\n<li>FEM calculations to determine the vibration situation and the potential for surface-borne sound.<\/li>\n<li>Design of, e.g., dampers and resonators<\/li>\n<li>Acoustic weakness analyses<\/li>\n<li>Part testing and optimisation<\/li>\n<li>Research and development of new products to determine noise and vibrations, and the technical characteristics of products<\/li>\n<li>Acoustic acceptance measurements<\/li>\n<li>Forecast on the acoustic behaviour<\/li>\n<li>Interior sound measurements<\/li>\n<li>Determination of air-, surface- and fluid-borne noise<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Technical noise reduction:\u00a0Bringing existing systems to the best status.<\/h4>\n<p>Whenever production has to be shut down unexpectedly because admissible or contractually agreed limits are being exceeded, one thing is certain: Your costs will go up! Those costs, especially in large installations are frequently underestimated and it is wise to remember that downtime costs can be a five or even six-figure-sum per day. Therefore, we at K\u00d6TTER ensure that our engineers arrive on site very quickly, to help your production get back up and running!<\/p>\n<p>With highest flexibility and an initial analysis usually performed right on site, they will recommend primary or secondary measures to remedy the situation quickly. No matter which: The measures will barely ever impair your machine&#8217;s or plant&#8217;s efficiency. Quite the opposite: sometimes they will even increase its reliability.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Determination of the mechanism of noise generation, transmission and radiation as the basis for effective noise-abatement measures<\/li>\n<li>Optimisation of the set-up and support of machines and plant components<\/li>\n<li>Quick and flexible troubleshooting deployments to identify the cause(s) of the problem by initial analysis on site<\/li>\n<li>Design of silencers and sound enclosures<\/li>\n<li>Sizing of vibration insulations<\/li>\n<li>Technical measurements to determine the dynamic properties of structures and equipment<\/li>\n<li>Acceptance measurements, determination of sound pressure levels<\/li>\n<li>Acoustic advice in all areas (stage technology, ship acoustics, CHP units, production plants, special machinery construction, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Measures for vibration reduction, e.g. by means of vibration absorbers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style='height:10px' class='hr hr-invisible  '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3921 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"troubleshooting_mitarbieter\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-705x470.jpg 705w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/koetter-consulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/troubleshooting_mitarbieter.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Troubleshooting:\u00a0Detailed on all channels.<\/h4>\n<p>Even when our technicians are deployed at short notice, their task is never to only identify the problem, but to also find its causes. These can vary tremendously. For this reason, troubleshooting involves a variety of measuring concepts. We use a multi-channel technical procedure to record all relevant parameters of a facility or machines. What is the relationship and interaction between operating conditions, noise, pulsation and vibration? This is critical for identification of the causes and ultimately, allows us to determine the fastest and most effective solutions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_half  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   \" style='border-radius:0px; '><div class=\"tabcontainer   top_tab  \">\n\n<section class=\"av_tab_section\"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" >    <div data-fake-id=\"#tab-id-1\" class=\"tab active_tab\"  itemprop=\"headline\" >Benefits<\/div>\n    <div id=\"tab-id-1-container\" class=\"tab_content active_tab_content\">\n        <div class=\"tab_inner_content invers-color\"  itemprop=\"text\" >\n<h4>Your benefits:\u00a0More benefits from the start to the happy ending.<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Optimisation of machine parts in terms of surface, geometry or damping even in the planning stage<\/li>\n<li>Reduction of the sound immissions to a minimum<\/li>\n<li>Increase of reliability in many existing systems<\/li>\n<li>Faster troubleshooting in nearly any location in the world even if subject to complex provisions for entering the country<\/li>\n<li>Initial analysis of primary or secondary measures for quick remedy, usually right on site<\/li>\n<li>Decades of experience with provisions on entering countries and bringing in required measuring equipment<\/li>\n<li>Internationally experienced employees in the areas of production, plant and equipment construction, compressors, pumps, agricultural machines, crude oil, natural gas, chemical industry\u2026<\/li>\n<li>Thorough experience in the area of rail bound vehicles (e.g. under consideration of various standards and directives such as VDV-document 154, DIN EN ISO 3381 or DIN EN ISO 3095.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Our seminars:\u00a0Perfect theory for optimal practice.<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>The following applies in particular to plant and machine builders: In the area of technical acoustics, one should be familiar not only with the laws of physics, but also with the legal provisions.
