OEMs and battery suppliers have to continuously develop new packs for the evolving automotive market. For battery electric vehicles (BEVs), the mileage range is a key factor, making the capacity of battery cells and packs crucial. In addition to capacity, current and voltage are central to battery development. As a result, the test systems for validating battery packs need to be state-of-the-art.
Our AVL Battery Module/Pack TS™ is an advanced test solution that accurately measures essential battery parameters under a variety of environmental conditions.
Versatile multi-function interfaces ensure seamless integration with key test tools. Moreover, we offer a closed-loop hardware and software toolchain tailored to every aspect of battery development, providing a holistic view of test challenges. This toolchain supports the entire product lifecycle.
In addition, the integration and interaction between the electrification systems departments – battery, e-motor, e-drive and fuel cell – enables comprehensive support The AVL Battery Module/Pack TS™ communicates effortlessly via CAN, and our systems are equipped with protocols such as EtherCAT to ensure smooth data exchange. We also offer comprehensive system design and development services, and use the expertise and cooperation of our AVL simulation and engineering departments to tailor the AVL Battery Module/Pack TS™ exactly to our customers’ needs
The AVL Battery Module/Pack TS™ is a modular test system that can be adapted to a wide range of customer requirements.
