Product <strong>News</strong> continuedNorsonicScantekpinta acoustic, inc.sound attenuation and vibration damping applicationsin the automotive, aerospace, marine, appliance,medical electronics and heavy equipment markets.Providing superior noise and vibration control,Adchem’s foam bonding solutions include adhesionto a wide variety of synthetic and natural materials.Adchem provides acrylic and rubber adhesive systemsand acrylic/rubber hybrid products for OEMs andleading foam and gasket fabricators nationwide.For additional information and samples, pleasecontact Adchem Corporation, 1852 Old Country Road,Riverhead, NY 11901 Phone: (631) 727-6000 Fax: (631)727-6010 or our website at www.adchem.com.NorsonicA New Tapping Machine from Norsonic Checks itsSpecifications ItselfScantek Inc., a distributor of sound and vibrationinstrumentation, and the first S&V instrumentcalibration laboratory accredited by NVLAP (NIST),is pleased to announce a new tapping machine fromNorsonic. The rugged N-277 Tapping machine is usedfor making standardized impact noise tests (foot fallnoise) in laboratories and in buildings as set out ininternational and national standards.Features:• Impact sound transmission testing according toISO140 part VI, VII and VIII, ASTM E-492 and ASTME-1007• Remote operation from hand switch or PC• Mains or battery operation• Low weight 10 kg (22 lb) incl. battery and wirelessremote option• Built in self check of hammer fall speed, andtapping sequence for automatic calibration of majorcomponents.• Retractable feet provide easy transportation andstorage• Dimensions feet retracted: 165 x 230 x 495 mm(6.5 x 9.1 x 19.5")Self check details:• A crystal controlled servo system ensures thecorrect tapping frequency is maintained at all timesand temperatures.• A level gauge mounted on the top helps the user toalign the unit when adjusting the fall height.The tapping machine continually monitors eachhammer with a laser sensor to measure the impactvelocity to ensure that the energy imparted into thetest floor is correct hence the effects of any friction ormisalignments are immediately apparent. Each hammerhas a LED indicator on the front panel that indicateswhen the impact velocity and tapping frequency arewithin the requirements of the standard.

The contract allows an option foran additional number of units in the future. The first fourwill be delivered, in separate units up to 2008 March.If ordered, the additional four units will be deliveredduring the late Spring of 2008.The Norsonic calibration system model <strong>15</strong>04A allowsthe (semi-) automated calibration of any brand of soundmeasuring instruments such as microphones, soundlevel meters, analyzers and dosimeters, acousticalcalibrators. The tests implemented are according tonational and international standards. This acquisitionwill allow the calibration laboratories to increaseproductivity and accuracy of their calibrations.Scantek Inc Calibration Laboratory, the first S&V instrumentcalibration laboratory accredited by NVLAP (NIST),has used these extremely flexible and accurate systemsfor years and it’s NVLAP accreditation demands, to agreat extent, on their accuracy and reliability.

The company’s products, management,vision and direction remain unchanged. illbruckacoustic—now pinta acoustic—is a subsidiaryof the former illbruck elements GmbH, which hasbeen renamed pinta elements gmbh. The changeswere effective on <strong>2007</strong> May 31. The name “pinta”was selected because of the company founder’sassociation with high-performance sailing. In 1969,Willi illbruck named his first sailing yacht “pinta.”168 www.inceusa.org • www.noisenewsinternational.net • www.i-ince.org <strong>2007</strong> <strong>December</strong>
