Optimising acoustic load paths through material and engineering

EDAG and 3M™ demonstrated their cooperation also in the field of acoustic engineering with their new damping technology "Engineered Damping Material" by 3M™. The new 3M™ "damping material" was developed to reduce structure-borne noise in lightweight design applications for vehicles. Engineering specialists EDAG carried out a study to identify and evaluate interesting target applications aimed at weight reduction and goal-oriented function integration for the application: in automobile, eMobility and commercial vehicle sectors. To this end, EDAG developed a robot-assisted gripper concept, which can be integrated in the vehicle assembly process.
