Developers and manufacturers of e-drives (e-motor + inverter) require highly versatile testing capabilities to ensure coverage of various types of units under test (UUT). They need the possibility to validate their e-motors and even control strategies and algorithms without having the inverter hardware available. Cost pressures are also increasing, and development efficiency in terms of time and cost remains a crucial factor.
E-Motor Portfolio
Testing a wide range of e-motor types is becoming an industry standard.
Vehicle-like Testing
Creating a test setup that comes closest to real vehicle conditions.
New Technologies
Test an e-motor, even if the inverter is not yet available (for example a SiC MOSFET inverter up to 1000 VDC).
Test Proprietary Control Software
Test how your software behaves at an early stage.
The flexible SPECTRA Universal Inverter can be used to test various motor types and offers unique performance. It can be integrated easily within every automation tool and the user is guided through the inverter configuration process. A minimum amount of motor data is needed to be able to start with testing. The fast 1 MHz control via FPGA (field-programmable gate array) technology complements the solution and provides superior control.
- Supported motor types: EESM, PMSM, IM
- Automation tool interfaces: EtherCAT, Modbus, CAN, XCP)
- Supported Encoders: Resolver, SinCos (SSI)
- 2 and 3 Level Operation
- Automatic Resolver calibration procedure
- Cogging torque & ripple compensation functionality
- Extremely versatile and open control logic
