Modern e-axle systems are compact, deliver high power density, and are engineered for maximum efficiency, performance, and drivability. To meet these demands, e-axle test systems must fulfill strict requirements in terms of durability, dynamic performance, and NVH behavior – ensuring not only functional reliability but also a smooth and comfortable driving experience.
Advanced e-axle testing must also address the growing complexity of electric mobility. This includes supporting predictive maintenance strategies, performing in-depth diagnostics, and adapting to changing test requirements. By enabling precise monitoring and fast response to potential issues, e-axle testbeds help minimize downtime and ensure long-term reliability across the entire lifecycle of the integrated e-drive system.
Performance Testing
AVL E-Axle TS™ Performance is a modular test system designed for the development and validation of e-axle systems across all vehicle classes – from light-duty passenger cars to heavy-duty commercial vehicles. Our modular and scalable testbeds enable performance, durability, and thermal testing under real-world conditions. With integrated automation, powerful load systems, and flexible installation on industrial floors, AVL ensures efficient testing workflows and high productivity – helping you accelerate development and meet future e-mobility demands.
NVH Testing
The AVL Powertrain TS™ NVH system enables precise acoustic and vibration analysis across the entire electric powertrain – from individual components and e-axles to complete drive units. It provides a dedicated environment for detailed e-axle NVH investigations while enabling seamless scaling to full powertrain validation. With exceptionally low background noise and flexible test configurations, the system ensures accurate, reproducible results and supports efficient NVH development from component-level testing to full system validation.
EMC Testing
To measure the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of e-drive systems and evaluate their emissions or assess their immunity to interference, specialized EMC test systems are required. Our AVL E-Axle TS™ EMC provides precise measurements and testing in accordance with the CISPR 25 standard, ensuring your systems meet stringent industry regulations. With this solution, you can effectively assess both emissions and immunity of your e-axle components, guaranteeing the reliability and compliance of electric drive systems for future mobility applications.
Production Testing
Our End-of-Line (EOL), Conformity of Production (COP), and Quality Assurance (QA) test systems are designed to ensure the quality and security of your entire e-axle production process. These fully automated e-axle rigging systems, integrated with robotic handling, allow for extremely short takt times, reducing them to just 120 seconds. By incorporating these advanced testing solutions into your production line, you can achieve high throughput while ensuring the highest quality standards, improving both the efficiency and reliability of your e-axle manufacturing process.
With our in-house engineering expertise, we actively analyze market trends and drive innovation to provide our customers with the best possible support. Based on this deep application know-how, we develop e-axle testing solutions that help our customers achieve their development goals.”
