Ever stricter emission regulations and diverse propulsion types ranging from traditional ICE to full battery electric vehicles are leading to a much higher workload on vehicle test environments. Regulation agencies are asking for full transparency on how a vehicle was certified, including the full chain of custody documentation. First time right for regulation compliant vehicle testing is the key to success.
To tackle these challenges and to achieve more with existing testing capacity, your testing infrastructure needs to be optimized for maximum efficiency and productivity. Lab Management for Vehicle is designed with these challenges in mind and addresses them with a modular approach. With a selection of automation modules customizable to your specific needs, it covers everything from R&D to full vehicle certification testing.
Optimal Use of Test Center Capacity
Achieve higher productivity by automating no-value-added tasks and an improved test field planning.
Guided and Monitored Workflows
Guiding operators and securing the traceability of all steps of the process and documentation ensures compliance of your test field.
First time right
Follow the right workflow and avoid manual data copying to improve the quality of your data.
Energy Monitoring
Avoid unnecessary investments and decrease your operational costs for an optimized total cost of ownership.
Our solution was developed together with regulatory agencies and manufactures and is in productive use in their facilities. Deep domain know-how in automotive testing and instrumentation is reflected in AVL’s tailored solutions that fully automate and document testing processes.
Dedicated Process Control Modules ensure an efficient utilization of all laboratory resources. They help stay on top of your test labs quality control processes and significantly reduce administrative efforts in all areas of the test lab.
- Achieve first time right results
- Ensure safe and compliant testing processes
- Use pre-defined or model individual workflows with the open architecture
- Significantly reduce planning and project setup time
Process Control
The process control module allows you to create individual projects for your test field. All active projects are visible centrally allowing you to monitor their individual progress.
Scheduling
The Scheduling module allows you to manage and monitor individual work orders on all stations in your test field (e.g., a testbed or equipment). The capacity overview supports in planning and utilizing the test field as productive as possible.
Monitoring
Multiple dashboards to monitor all testing processes are available in the monitoring module. They provide an overview over the status of the testing process and gather actionable insights for all teams involved.
Data Management
The solution provides harmonized data integration – independent from the data source. A fully automated, standardized, and scalable data integration provides the foundation for further analysis.
Increase the efficiency and effectiveness of your test lab.
Data- and process management software for cell, pack, and module
AVL Process Control Modules constitute a powerful selection of software modules to assist you in all necessary steps involved in the testing process and result evaluation.
AVL iGEM 2™ is our cutting-edge test automation solution for your energy and emission testing needs. It delivers high-quality data for certification and R&D testing.
Meet the challenges of today and tomorrow with this modular data management solution for data harmonization, integration, search, exploration, and automated processing.
Ever stricter vehicle conformity requirements and regulations as well as diverse powertrain technologies lead to a much higher workload on vehicle test environments. Therefore, optimizing testing infrastructure for maximum efficiency is of great importance.
AVL has been awarded the contract to provide nearly all the software and hardware for light and heavy duty vehicle, engine, and powertrain testing at the new California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) lab in Riverside, California.
In this webinar, Kurt Engeljehringer shares details of AVL’s free Emission and Energy Testing Handbook, which aims to help engineers understand and navigate this complex topic.
