Rebuilding a test facility is a complex process that involves addressing a multitude of challenges. It begins with a thorough analysis of the desired workflow, ensuring that the facility's layout supports efficient operations while meeting stringent safety requirements. Additionally, the design must integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure and account for any constraints.
Detailed engineering involves the development of precise specifications for bidding documents. Preparing submittal documents for building and equipment permits is also a key step, requiring careful attention to regulatory compliance.
Effective project management is crucial throughout the rebuilding process. This includes scheduling, supervising, and documenting all phases of the project. Identify and contract the appropriate partners, continuously monitor progress, and commission and sign off the final result.

AVL established its first tech center a long time ago. Over the years, we have gained extensive experience in designing it around the engineering workflow, based on our own operational experience. For over twenty years, we have also offered our expertise to customers to help them build a new tech center or adapt an existing one.”
– Heinrich Stader, Principal Lead Engineer Turnkey Solutions, AVL List GmbH
Customer requirements show the need for additional test capacity for ambitious product development plans. AVL Tech Center Modules significantly shorten this process. The flexible, location-independent and easily relocatable modular test system is particularly helpful.
Energy monitoring and load management for your testing facility: AVL EMOS™ is the gateway to energy efficiency and regulatory compliance in the test field.
At AVL, we develop e-axle solutions that can be easily installed without impacting the productivity of your engineering facility.
With the shift towards electrification comes a high demand for test systems that focus solely on e-axles. These test systems must cover the requirements and test standards for E-Motor, inverter and transmission.
For battery (module/pack) testing, we offer complete test systems, stand-alone equipment, or even entire turnkey test labs.
We offer complete test systems for the testing of modules/packs. Learn more about which hard- and software products are included in our test systems.
AVL has a wide portfolio consisting of dedicated e-motor test systems, software, tools, and processes to test and validate these modern e-drive systems in shortest time and with highest quality standards.
WEBINAR - Brake wear is one of the most significant non-exhaust traffic-related sources of particulate matter and, as a result, will be included in future emission regulations. Due to the broad size range of brake wear particles new instruments are required.
In the search for green and sustainable mobility, AVL has addressed the challenges of developing and validating automotive fuel cell systems – from a single cell up to complete systems for various applications.
AVL’s hybrid and engine test systems are highly flexible development environments for testing internal combustion engines and their hybrid components.
Your success is our goal. This is what we are aiming for and this is how we understand AVL Customer Services since decades. Our goal is not new, but the way how we do it, is constantly evolving.
