Today, manufacturing enterprises are forced to constantly improve their productivity, with simultaneous reduction in metal consumption. The use of powerful high-speed machine tools is accompanied by increase in noise levels. The reduction of noise and vibration is important in order to improve working conditions and to ensure competitiveness of the machine tools produced. That entails the adoption of noise-reduction measures in the early stages of design [1, 2]. The design of low-noise equipment is a complex problem. Note that measures adopted after the design process is basically complete may be partially effective, at best. Such measures are expensive and must operate within severe constraints.
