The iGEM 2 test automation system guides you through
the entire brake test procedure, including pre-test dialog,
test preparation and the test run itself. The test cycle is
run automatically in an unmanned mode.
We have years of experience as a developer
and manufacturer of particle
measurement equipment, and this
allows us to support modern electrified
vehicle development as well as
conventional combustion-powered
vehicles. Brake systems in modern,
electrified powertrains must be considered
as a whole due to their interfaces
and interactions with the vehicle.
The focus here is on the ability
to recover braking energy through
suitable recuperation strategies. The
consideration of vehicle operating
strategies for optimized emission
behavior requires the use of appropriate
simulation tools. Regarding
these simulation tools for vehicle cosimulation
on the test bench, AVL
can draw on many years of experience
and mature functionalities that
enable it to cover current requirements
in development.
Our solutions cover all current development
requirements. Additionally,
we also developed a solution to
convert your existing testbed infrastructure
for brake emission tests.
This could help togain utilization
of existing testbeds with minimum
investment.

AVL also developed the testing
automation tool AVL iGEM 2™
for brake wear testing. This solution
enables the execution of legally
required tests and offers simple
modification options for customer-specific
development tasks. The
application’s
associated test evaluation
and automatic test reporting
round off this lean, optimized package.
In addition we have developed
a solution to convert your existing
testbed infrastructure for brake
emission tests. This could help to
gain utilization of existing testbeds
with minimum investment.
In analogy to exhaust gas legislation,
it can be assumed that in the
medium-term braking emissions
will be examined not only on the
basis of component tests on the testbed,
but also in real driving operation.
Here, too, we are already taking
the first development steps, and
will build on our success in exhaust
emission reduction.
