VIacoustics can offer you a wide variety of acoustic and quality system consulting services that can help you build an acoustic measurement program from a basic sound level measurement to a fully accredited test laboratory. And, we can also help you make your products quieter and sound better to your customers. Here’s just a few of the consulting services we typically provide to our clients.
Acoustic Consulting on Product Noise – Understanding of product specifications, regulatory requirements, test methods, and basic acoustic principals as it relates to your product, equipment, or situation. Many clients who are experiencing acoustic noise emission requirements for the first time need these services just to understand the basics of the technology and the measurements required.
Acoustic Consulting on Acoustic Measurements and Laboratory Design – We’ve been involved in the construction and instrumentation of literally hundreds of acoustic measurement laboratories throughout the world for the past 30+ years. Some were basic acoustic measurement test benches in small companies and some were the largest, accredited test laboratories in the US. We can help you plan for what you need to build an acoustics program in your company that will meet your needs.
Acoustic Consulting for Product Noise Control – Working with David Nelson of Nelson Acoustics, one of the leading noise control consultants and sound quality experts in the US, VIacoustics can offer you acoustic consulting services that will help you reduce, control and engineer the sounds that come from your product to meet regulatory requirements, product specifications or customer acceptance criteria.
