KnitMesh Technologies’ Sound Attenuation Mesh is designed to reduce noise effectively in applications where high flow rates must be maintained. It is widely used in industrial, defence, and safety systems where reliable sound control is essential without restricting gas flow.
The unique knitted wire mesh structure makes it ideal for silencing gas flow in high-flow applications such as specialist fire extinguishers, air tools, pressure release systems, and gas exhausts. The open mesh design allows gases to pass freely while significantly reducing noise.
The exceptional formability of KnitMesh Technologies’ knitted wire mesh allows it to be shaped for difficult designs and tight installation spaces. Materials can be selected to optimise sound absorption and durability, and KnitMesh Technologies’ engineers work closely with customers to deliver tailored solutions for sound and vibration attenuation challenges.
Knitted wire mesh is a highly versatile material used in a variety of industries because of its ability to absorb energy. The unique nature of the material allows it to absorb energy in the form of heat, vibration, and sound, making it a popular choice for many different applications.
One way that knitted wire mesh absorbs energy is through heat transfer. Because the material is made up of interlocking loops of wire, it has a large surface area that can absorb heat from its surroundings. This makes it an ideal material for use in applications that generate a lot of heat, such as high-performance engines or electronic devices. By absorbing excess heat, knitted wire mesh helps to protect these components and prevent damage.
Another way that knitted wire mesh absorbs energy is through vibration. When an object vibrates, it gives off energy in the form of sound waves. Knitted wire mesh is a highly effective material for absorbing these sound waves, as the loops of wire help to dissipate the energy and reduce the amplitude of the vibrations. This makes it an ideal material for use in applications that require noise reduction, such as in automotive exhaust systems or industrial machinery.
Lastly, knitted wire mesh can also absorb energy in the form of sound waves themselves. When sound waves pass through the material, they encounter resistance from the interlocking loops of wire, which helps to dissipate the energy and reduce the volume of the sound. This makes knitted wire mesh a popular material for use in acoustic panels and other sound insulation applications.
