/ 115 Vehicle Testbeds for Special Purposes and Modernization Solutions Besides the product lines and applications NVH, EMC and Advanced Applications mentioned above, AVL also offers special vehicle testbeds for snowmobiles, tractors or multi-axle vehicles. Customer-specific solutions can also be realized in the form of modernizations of already existing units. 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 update packages provide up-to-date system components for mechanics, measuring and control techniques as well as the current software for installed AVL and external testbeds. CHARACTERISTICS The AVL portfolio ranges from hardware and software upgrades of control unit components for double-roller sets right up 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 up to heavy-duty vehicles, can be tested. In addition to control and closed-loop control, the flexible automation system of AVL PUMA Open 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 renewal • Improved availability of service and spare parts APPLICATION Mechanical design, performance electronics and automation systems are needed to meet the requirements. However, the focus is on the application. AVL offers solutions for exhaust emission testing, vehicle aging, environment simulation, maneuver-based testing, acoustic testing, electromagnetic compatibility testing and much more. All types of AVL and third-party testbeds can be upgraded with AVL update packs. Furthermore, it is possible to complement and extend the basic application of vehicle testbeds to be updated with additional applications. Full range of services from motorcycles to truck vehicle testbeds Renewal of control unit components and integration of existing AVL and third-party vehicle testbeds into the AVL VECON controller
