Abstract
Industrial noise is one of the most common physical factors that cause annoyance and damage workers' health in the long term. Precautions should be taken to reduce noise and improve acoustic performance in industrial working environments. This paper aims to analyze the acoustic performance of the automotive industry and contribute to the global outcomes of sustainability and the development of strategies to improve the quality of the working environment through improvement scenarios. For this purpose, the automotive industry in Türkiye was examined as a case study. In-situ acoustic measurements were made in the seat manufacturing unit of an automotive factory and the current situation was transferred to the simulation program. The effects of acoustic improvements on A-weighted sound pressure level and reverberation time at mid-frequencies (500, 1000, 2000 Hz) were investigated through three different scenarios. In the investigations, noise distributions were carried out through noise mapping. The A-weighted sound pressure levels in the automotive industry were reduced by approximately 15 dB. As a result of the study, suggestions for noise control precautions and their effects on the automotive industry seat manufacturing unit are presented.
