On the path of growth toward excellence and internationalization, the first project fully manufactured according to U-Stamp ASME certification was recently completed. This is a strategic supply of in-line silencers designed for the U.S. market, developed to meet specific acoustic and performance requirements. An achievement that represents a milestone in our ability to offer solutions that meet the highest international standards.
A strategic project for the U.S. market
A leading customer in the rotating machinery industry
The project involved the supply of in-line silencers for two-stage compressors for a well-known U.S. rotating machinery manufacturer, a major player in the global industrial scene.
Custom design to customer specifications
Each silencer is designed to meet precise acoustic, fluid dynamic, and mechanical requirements tailored to the operating characteristics of the compressors. The design has been optimized to ensure high performance in terms of noise abatement and structural reliability.
Performance and safety, a comprehensive engineering approach
Noise control under all operating conditions
The silencers were engineered with adequate safety margins to ensure effective noise attenuation, even under the most demanding operating conditions. Acoustic analyses played a key role in validating the expected performance.
Prevention of acoustic and mechanical resonances
Frequency analyses were conducted to avoid the occurrence of resonance phenomena, considering the rotational speeds of the compressors and the natural frequencies of the proposed assemblies. Optimization of geometry, stiffness, and mass distribution allowed the elimination of vibrational issues along the entire operating range.
Certified indoor cleaning
As with all products connected directly to compressors, advanced manufacturing techniques were used to ensure theabsence of particles greater than 100 microns. Internal cleanliness was certified by flux tests performed during final testing.
U-Stamp certification, a guarantee of quality and global compliance
What is U-Stamp Certification
U-Stamp certification is an official recognition issued by theAmerican Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for pressure equipment built according to Section VIII of the ASME Code. It is a mandatory requirement for marketing such equipment in the U.S. market.
Technical and operational advantages
Thanks to this certification, every stage of the production process, from design to manufacturing and testing, follows strict and traceable procedures. Material, welding and inspection choices are made according to the strictest international standards, minimizing the risk of failure or malfunction.
Tracking and registration with the National Board
One of the main advantages of U-Stamp certification is the ability to register products with the U.S. National Board, an essential step for the legal installation of pressurized equipment in the United States.
Conclusion
The success of this first U-Stamp certified project demonstrates U-Stamp’s ability to offer advanced acoustic solutions that are safe and comply with the most stringent international regulations. A significant achievement that opens up new opportunities in the global industrial noise reduction market.
