ABSTRACT:
The purpose of the machine noise reduction kit is to provide a noise attenuating apparatus for closing machines used for seaming end covers on metal, cardboard, paper or seamable type cans or containers. The reason for developing the noise reduction kit was to protect the machine operator from excessive noise levels as defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration better known as OSHA. The kit has been detail designed, fabricated and installed on a can closing machine with a reduction in noise at the operator's position from 98 dBA to 86 dBA.
In addition to being a noise attenuating device, the use of the kit eliminates the splashing and drainage of spilled product onto the floor around the machine, thereby improving sanitary conditions in the plants.
