/ 95 Vehicle Testbeds for Special Purposes and Modernization Solutions In addition to vehicle testbed products with a variety of options and variants, AVL also offers special and customer-specific solutions (e.g. vehicle testbed modernizations). These are developed in intensive cooperation with the customer before the start of the project and are planned in detail and built in our factory. AVL modernization packages are available for upgrading to AVL PUMA Open for vehicle testing or as well as updating all types of AVL and third-party vehicle testbeds. CHARACTERISTICS The AVL portfolio ranges from hardware and software upgrades of control unit components over double-roller sets all the way to large single rollers. The testbeds are designed as single- or multiple-axle testbeds (e.g. per wheel or per axle equipped with a motor). Vehicles from motorcycles to freight vehicles can be tested. In addition to control and closed-loop control, the flexible automation system of AVL PUMA Open for Vehicle Testing allows for the integration of measurement technology. Upgrades via an accuracy package enable a more precise force and speed measurement chain to achieve increased measuring and control accuracy. BENEFITS AT A GLANCE • Individual system design complies with customer- specific requirements for vehicles of any type (e.g. special vehicles such as tractors or snowmobiles) • Adaptation to local conditions and local standards • Robust industrial design extends the usage period of vehicle testbeds • Long-term experience and successful implementations in plant engineering and with vehicle testbed modernization • Improved availability of service and spare parts APPLICATION Mechanical design, performance electronics and automation systems are components needed to meet the requirements. However, the focus is on the application. AVL offers solutions for exhaust emission certification, vehicle aging, environment simulation, maneuver based testing, acoustic testing, electromagnetic compatibility testing and much more.
