The document provides tips for reducing noise from brushed motors, which include examining different varnishing processes, custom carbon brushes, and tightening machining tolerances to reduce noise by 10 decibels or more. Additional tips are avoiding resonant components, using vibration isolators, and properly aligning driven components to further reduce radiated noise from the motor and driven system. The company tests motors and gearmotors in their sound evaluation laboratory to mitigate unacceptable noise.
