Minetek works with leading OEMs, including Caterpillar, Komatsu and Liebherr to enable machines to comply with required mine site sound levels.

Ensuring that OEM airflow is maintained when adding sound suppression componentry to the machinery is crucial. It’s Minetek’s primary engineering principle, along with reducing the overall machine noise output.

At Minetek, we understand the importance of maintaining optimal machine performance and airflow to prevent overheating. Our sound attenuation solutions preserve payloads and boost productivity without compromising OEM backpressure or fuel efficiency. Machinery with Minetek’s sound suppression kits can go to work all day, every day, while maintaining noise compliance and performing to maximum potential without overheating. Our solutions reduce operating noise and increase operating hours, productivity, confidence, and profits.

Key Takeaways:

  • Early noise control planning reduces compliance risk and prevents costly project delays.
  • Effective attenuation considers site layout, duty cycles and cumulative sound behaviour, not just equipment output.
  • Engineered solutions like our M-STEALTH™ system lower noise levels while preserving airflow, payload balance and OEM requirements.
  • Targeted testing, including ISO-aligned compliance and sound intensity analysis, delivers measurable performance benchmarks.
  • Site-specific attenuation strategies improve operator safety, streamline approvals and protect long-term operational continuity.

Aletek sound attenuation is essential for those looking to reduce noise output from industrial equipment.

Tackling noise at mining sites can feel overwhelming as regulations tighten, equipment noise remains high and compliance becomes paramount. You need practical, effective noise attenuation/source attenuation solutions to ensure field machinery operates quietly, safely and within legal limits. That’s where Aletek sound attenuation becomes relevant.

While Aletek itself does not sell noise control products directly, assessing their compatibility with custom offerings can add efficiency to your operations.

Minetek, a leader in innovative industrial acoustic attenuation, specialises in engineering sound attenuation packages compatible with equipment like the ones made by Aletek. With a focus on delivering results, we provide the expertise you seek in tailoring effective noise mitigation strategies.

It’s crucial to tackle noise compliance responsibilities on active sites.

Operations that deploy Aletek machinery must address noise control from the outset because construction, mining and industrial sites operate under strict, continuously monitored noise limits.

Non-compliance can delay approvals, disrupt schedules and expose operators to unnecessary risk.

Effective noise management extends beyond the equipment itself. Sound behaviour is shaped by site layout, operating hours, surrounding structure and duty cycles. Without clear noise control solutions for mining, noise can accumulate, travel further than expected and trigger regulatory or community concerns.

Early and proactive Aletek noise control supports smoother approvals, reduces the likelihood of complaints and protects operational continuity. It also helps safeguard operators from excessive exposure.

We work with heavy industry operators to implement practical, site-specific attenuation strategies. Our approach is engineered for compliance, measurable performance and real-world conditions, delivering controlled sound output without compromising productivity.

Our sound suppression technologies complement Aletek equipment through tailored engineering.

We offer Aletek sound attenuation that directly improves industrial asset performance.

Heavy-duty sites face constant challenges in noise management. Our sound solutions target excessive noise from both mobile and fixed industrial machinery. With our state-of-the-art designs, you can reduce site noise without hindering machine performance, ensuring operations aren’t compromised.

M-STEALTH™

The M-STEALTH™ system zeroes in on specific noise emissions.

Precision acoustic engineering allows targeted noise reduction that keeps airflow, payload balance and OEM back pressure intact. This unique approach to Aletek noise reduction enables you to focus on what’s necessary, reducing noise while maintaining machine efficiency.

Attenuation that doesn’t cut corners is a must on busy, noise-sensitive work sites, and you can trust us to build robust acoustic attenuation for construction sites and other operations.

Custom sound packages

Flexibility in sound solutions means operating more effectively on every level. With that in mind, our custom sound packages cater to diverse machinery.

Haul trucks, excavators, dozers, graders, drills and service vehicles each play a pivotal role in your operations. For this reason, we offer noise reduction systems compatible with fleet configurations typical on complex worksites.

Our adaptable packages fit various assets, providing seamless and effective noise management.

Acoustic enclosures

Acoustic enclosures limit noise for fixed equipment with an artful design that confines operational noise within controlled boundaries. This method complements processing equipment, creating a quieter work environment that boosts compliance. Limiting the sound spillover with industrial sound attenuation supports both workforce and community comfort.

Generator attenuators

Aletek and Caterpillar sound attenuation solutions include generator attenuators, which tackle noise from industrial generators. High-output generators produce continuous acoustic emissions that affect workplace sound levels. Our attenuators greatly reduce noise, benefiting workers and surrounding communities.

Tailored solutions from technical experts

Our expert team assists in identifying the best sound dampening solutions for your needs. With technical expertise, we evaluate your unique requirements and devise custom solutions to match. Trust your specific scenario with those who craft solutions that align with industry demands.

Through thorough investigation, we can help identify practical pathways to effective noise reduction.

When noise becomes an issue within cabins, processing facilities, vehicle fleets or individual machines, we spring into action.

We conduct detailed investigations pinpointing the primary acoustic sources affecting operations. Addressing these sources lays the groundwork for effective noise management. Identifying the root cause means less disruption and smoother operations.

  • Compliance testing: Aligning with ISO 6393/6395 standards, compliance testing sets measurable benchmarks for reporting when it comes to WesTrac noise reduction and other solutions. This helps create clear baselines for both regulatory submissions and internal monitoring. With precise standards in place, you gain better control over noise levels, enhancing both accountability and strategic planning.
  • Sound intensity testing: Sound intensity testing visualises noise travel from components. Engineers use this to craft more targeted attenuation designs. This results in tailored sound suppression equipment that tackles noise at critical points, supporting site-specific noise control.
  • Mobile fleet screening: Mobile fleet screening helps prioritise mobile assets needing noise control, boosting efficiency. This strategic intervention directs resources where they matter most, enhancing operational productivity and cutting unnecessary costs.
  • Operator noise exposure: Noise exposure assessments protect workplace safety. They pinpoint where long-term exposure demands intervention, contributing to improved acoustic safety planning.

Investigation findings guide practical Aletek sound attenuation solutions. Apart from meeting regulatory demands, these solutions also align with operational objectives, maximising both compliance and functionality.
