NVH Engineering
NVH experts from Signal.X collectively represent extensive direct industry experience solving difficult noise and vibration problems in a wide variety of industries. Our team has demonstrated core competency in automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery and consumer products industries. Our NVH engineering services include:
NVH Metric Development
Autonomous assessment using noise and vibration data requires robust metrics to indicate key factors about machine performance. Developing NVH metrics requires sample field returns, seeded flaws, and rigorous test procedures to establish robust detection and repeatability. Signal.X will take direct responsibility for proposing candidate metrics, creating a statistically sound test plan, acquiring and analyzing data, and ultimately deploying proven metrics suitable to laboratory automation, machinery health monitoring or production assessment.
NVH Metric Development
Machine Design Aid
Signal.X will join with you in the design of a custom test machine and take responsibility for content that is critical to robust and repeatable dynamic data. Often the design needed to produce quality data well above the rigid body frequencies of a machine will complicate fixturing tooling and instrumentation requirements. Signal.X can help ensure data quality and provide diagnostic and corrective action through commissioning.
