 Agriculture has been heavily mechanized in the last fifty years. Only 3% of the U.S. labor force works in agriculture, supplying not only America’s demand for food but also responsible for one of the largest export trade categories. This level of productivity is owed, in no small measure, to heavy infusions of capital to replace labor. The machinery used in creating and maintaining productive farm acreage is huge, expensive and usually noisy.
Labor productivity is lost when an operator works eight hours with a noisy piece of machinery. Manufacturers are locked in a serious competition to make cabs quiet using laminated glass and steel technology.
Damping noise and vibration has traditionally been costly and risky – until now. Quiet Solution offers the agricultural sector a complete line of high-performance products to soundproof farm vehicles and the associated buildings and machinery. Using a new generation of viscoelastic polymers, it is now possible to achieve luxury levels of quiet with a fraction of the bulk, weight and cost of traditional technologies.
The most effective way to mitigate farm equipment noise and vibration is to coat the driver compartment with QuietTruck viscoelastic polymer.
