AVL Test Systems, Inc. is now the exclusive distributor of NOVONIX’s Ultra-High Precision Coulometry (UHPC) cyclers and associated battery cell testing equipment in the United States market. 

“As partners, AVL and NOVONIX can provide the most accurate and precise lithium-ion battery cell testing equipment in the world for reliable and rapid evaluation of cells,” said Siegfried Roeck, Executive Director and Business Manager at AVL Test Systems, Inc.
