The Norsonic 277 Tapping Machine is an impact sound generator, for making footfall noise transmission measurements in buildings as set out in International and National Standards.
Tapping Machine for building acoustics and sound insulation testing
The tapping machine Nor277 is the third generation of tapping machines from Norsonic for performing standardised impact noise tests (foot fall noise). It incorporates all the experience from the former generations into a compact, light, yet a rugged unit with the construction based on an extruded aluminium chassis.
