You can see the video of our conversation at: Acoustic Camera Video Acoustic Camera The acoustic camera that we use consists of 256 microphones with a camera in the middle. The array of microphones is used to identify the differences in noise levels and is overlaid on the photo of video from the camera. The…
Noise Engineers recently installed acoustical treatment to a factory in Mexico. The installation was done to reduce worker noise exposure. In this blog we will discuss the noise problem, the treatment options, and the expected noise reduction.
I recently used an acoustic camera for three factory noise projects in Mexico. We were tasked with identifying the noise sources and reducing the noise from many machines. We rented an acoustic camera to help us with this process. An acoustic camera costs between $100,000 and $200,000. I found it to be very helpful,…

In factory spaces, much of the machinery noise is reflected into the space. This noise can interfere with production and ultimately cost your company money.
