As inconspicuous as the exterior of your washing machine may appear to you, its inner workings are just as complex. Hardly any other household appliance has such a large number of technical components that are optimally coordinated to ensure reliable and quiet cleaning of your laundry. For product development, however, this represents an enormous challenge, especially due to the strong vibrations generated in the spin cycle, for example, which affect the entire structure.
The manufacturer Miele is known worldwide for particularly high-quality and quiet washing machines. When developing such a high-end washing machine, long development cycles and numerous test runs with several physical prototypes are not uncommon. Novicos developed a virtual prototype for washing machines for Miele in order to precisely predict the sound emission.
