The March/April issue of the trade journal E-Mobility Engineering focuses on a central topic of electromobility: the testing of electric motors. The comprehensive article highlights the various challenges and technologies along the entire testing process, from individual components to complete vehicle integration. We were delighted to contribute to this article and share our expertise in the field of e-motor testing.
The article clearly shows that electric drives, despite their mechanical simplicity compared to combustion engines, require a variety of test methods. Topics such as insulation tests, rotor balancing, thermal loads, noise behavior and EMC are just as much a focus as system tests on test benches under realistic conditions.
The increasing importance of hardware-in-the-loop simulation, AI-supported analysis and condition monitoring will also be discussed. In addition to classic performance indicators such as torque and efficiency, harmonic distortion, thermal behavior and regenerative braking processes also play a role.

In this context, we were able to contribute our experience from projects with electric motors between 7.5 kW and 650 kW. In the article we report on, among other things:
A special feature is the modularity of our test benches and software solutions, which can be adapted to specific requirements. From simple test routines to comprehensive HIL scenarios.
