Marian manufactures die-cut components using highly engineered materials that are formulated for sound dampening, vibration damping, vibration isolation, and noise reduction. Many machines and devices produce unwanted noise and vibration as they operate, which can cause damage to sensitive components, leading to product failure as well as the production of annoying noise. With Marian’s custom solutions using specialized sound dampening and vibration damping materials, your applications can withstand damage and product failure due to excessive vibration.
Our die-cut solutions for sound dampening and vibration damping materials includes:
- Gaskets
- Pads
- Cushions
- Foil Tapes
Vibration Damping and Sound Dampening Material Solutions
Rogers PORON® Urethanes
PORON® Urethane foams are an excellent choice for vibration isolation, damping, and noise reduction. They are highly resilient elastomers with excellent resistance to compression set (material collapse) and exhibit good vibration damping characteristics. PORON® urethane elastomers can reflect vibrations over long periods of time, offering stability in a wide range of environments.
Rogers BISCO® Silicones
BISCO® Silicone foams and solid silicone products are a proven, long-term solution to reducing vibration-induced noise and are designed to meet stringent standards for extreme temperatures and flames. BISCO® Silicones meet many important aircraft, rail, and automotive specifications.
3M Vibration Damping Foil Tapes
3M Damping Foil Tapes are self-adhesive, made with viscoelastic damping polymers coated on a dead soft aluminum foil. They are designed for applications where there is a need to control resonant vibrations. Download data sheet.
Sound Deadening Pads
Self-adhesive elastomer pads that suppress noise and vibrations. Pads can be cut to size and applied to structures to dampen sound and vibrations, such as vehicle floors, doors, and body panels, as well as appliance and HVAC systems. Download data sheet.
Markets and Applications
Products in the markets below are designed with added components to control noise and vibration. Marian can help with sound dampening and vibration damping material selection, component design and engineering, and manufacturing of these components to keep your products operating quietly for long-term use.
Automotive + Transportation – NHV/BSR Reduction
Automobile designs require an extremely quiet experience for passengers. Buzz, squeak, rattle (BSR) also known as noise, vibration, harshness (NVH) are issues that can plague automobile designs and must be addressed to ensure consumer confidence.
Success Story: PORON Gasket Used in Outdoor Camera System
When a company’s outdoor camera gasket failed to withstand prolonged exposure to extremes of temperature and moisture, and constant vibration from the wind, they turned to Marian for a superior alternative. Read more…
