We are a Manufacturer of Acoustic and Thermo-acoustic Products

Acoustics

Developing NVH solutions for an Automotive Compressor

Light-weighting with AcuLite Duo

1. Experimental Set Up

Worked with the customer to understand their requirements and insights. Adding this knowledge to internal research

2. Defining metrics for quantifying success

Intelligent Material Innovation

Finding appropriate test methods to quanitfy the current state and setting targets which will deliver a successful outcome

3. Testing and Developing

We identified that existing technology for acoustic insulation required heavy materials.

In response, Pritex developed a new multilayer product which is 5 times lighter than a comparable heavy layer composite. This is called AcuLite Duo.

AcuLite Duo also has superior absorption properties at low frequency.

This is now a patent pending product.

Using knowledge learned during the set up stages, identifying raw materials and assemblies that deliver the customer requirements

4. Validating acoustic performance

Carrying out extensive product testing both internally and with the customer
