AVL E-Motor TS™ Performance

Optimum view of speed and torque.

The test system for developing your unique e-drive.

e-motor performance

An e-motor test system needs the flexibility to test the full speed and torque range of different kinds of e-motors. Therefore, the overall mechanics, drive shaft, and dyno system need to be set up accordingly. Another challenge is completing the huge number of validation and verification tasks within the tight schedule. Our optimized and future-proof e-motor test system offers the flexibility to test units under test (UUTs) with wide range of speed and torque, and to test any type of modern e-drive system efficiently.

Ensuring that the performance, efficiency, and drivability of your e-drive is a perfect fit for the given vehicle requires many tests and optimization tasks. AVL E-Motor TS™ Performance, including software packages and ready-to-use applications, helps you to develop, test, and validate your e-drive rapidly and with the highest quality.

Overview of the AVL conditioning systems
Media Conditioning Systems

To accurately simulate extreme driving conditions, conditioning systems must create extreme media conditions that are essential for effective testing. Testbed efficiency is improved by quickly establishing initial conditions. Oil and coolant conditioning systems enable rapid cooling of the unit under test at the end of each test cycle, allowing more tests, including cold start tests, to be performed in the same time frame.
