How do iglidur plain bearings reduce noise in motor vehicles (Buzz, Squeak and Rattle)?

Julio Pauli | 2. October 2019

BSR are all noises that are produced by components and assemblies in the motor vehicle. BSR testing, also called a noise and rattle test, is an acoustic method from the automotive industry and is used to measure the volume of these noises. A realistic situation with corresponding vibrations is simulated and the volume of the noise is then measured. The technical challenge for the vehicle and component engineers is to identify the ‘noisy’ components and replace them with a quieter solution wherever possible.

Overview of 3D printing

Dirk Zacharias | 17. September 2019

3D printing is also known as additive manufacturing, rapid prototyping, rapid manufacturing or generative manufacturing. A component from a 3D printer is usually made in the same way. The material is applied layer by layer until the component has been completed. However, the manufacturing process varies depending on the individual 3D printing procedure used. The […]
