Testing emerging
EV technologies
As e-axles and e-mobility technologies develop, new solutions are evolving for the
testing of the performance, endurance, and production of electric motors and inverters
Hybrid and battery electric
vehicle technologies are
changing the face of the automotive
sector, and are quickly gaining
momentum as the industry standard
worldwide, especially compared to
hybrid solar vehicle, hydrogen fuel
cell, and others.
The testing of electric and hybrid
vehicles requires modular designs
that are capable of measuring the
ever-changing nature of their
technologies. The development
of modern vehicles with extremely
complex powertrain concepts puts
high requirements on a testing
system which is expected to master
the complex engineering, while
also simplifying usability at the
same time.
Test systems need to simulate
real-world scenarios that stress and
measure the electrical, mechanical,
and thermal characteristics of a
wide range of electrification systems
when applied in future-oriented
tasks from the testbed and
ultimately to the road.

The specialization in the design
and integration of mechatronics,
electronic data acquisition systems,
and software suites to produce
these new test machines employs
the highest level of performance and
technology. The ability to provide
systems that have the ability to
measure motors, inverters, batteries,
and e-axles in an infinite number of
configurations is where the industry
is heading.
The system performs a
synchronized monitoring of
measured and calculated values of
high-speed dynamic performance,
endurance and production testing
of voltage, current, torque, power,
e iciency, resolver feedback, rotor
positioning, analog and digital
signals, thermal and fluid
characterizations. Taking the
captured data then analyzing and
uploading to myriad assembly lines
and laboratory systems, its
post-processing software requires
customizable software and
hardware systems with resiliency
An e-axle testing machine is one
of the many state-of-the-art
performance, endurance and
production systems that D&V
Electronics designs and manufactures
