Why imbalance is shaking up the automotive industry – and how NVH analyses can help
Imbalance in rotating machines is more than just a technical nuisance; it is a real cost driver!
In the automotive industry, it is considered the main cause of unwanted vibrations, power losses, and premature wear. Whether in crankshafts, fan wheels, or flywheels: unevenly distributed masses not only lead to a loss of comfort, but can also distort test bench results and thus jeopardize the validity of tests.
This is exactly where NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) analysis comes in. It examines noises and vibrations, identifies the causes, and enables targeted optimization of driving comfort, quality, and safety. For engineers, this means detecting, analyzing, and correcting imbalances at an early stage—directly on the test bench or in the vehicle.
NVH analysis is indispensable for automotive development today: it not only protects machines and components, but also the budget by reducing downtime and repair costs.
With our high-precision LTTsmart measurement data acquisition system in combination with the NVH analysis software Balancing and Vibrations Analysis from expert Ziad Sibaei, test engineers have a tool that delivers precise measurement data, fast analyses, and reliable results.
The result: greater efficiency, higher operational reliability, and a longer service life for your machines.
