2019 AVL Powertrain Dynamometer Test System (Turnkey Test Cell)

580 kW / 8,400 Nm – FWD & RWD – Battery Emulator 800 V

Turnkey AVL transient/dynamic powertrain test system (dynamometer) previously used for professional transmission and driveline R&D. Built for repeatable, laboratory-grade control of torque, speed and energy flows across ICE, EV and hybrid development programs. Supplied with an approx. 10 m x 8 m acoustically dampened test cell featuring a 2.5 t overhead crane, plus a temperature control system and ducting provisioned for cell heating and cooling.

This is a serious OEM-grade development asset — ideal for race engineering programs, powertrain engineering teams, or research groups seeking a proven, high-value alternative to a multi-year new-equipment lead time.

Why this system matters

• OEM-grade transient control and repeatability for calibration, durability, NVH and efficiency programs
• Dual-axis 2WD capability supporting both front-wheel and rear-wheel drive transmission/driveline configurations
• Regenerative 4-quadrant drive architecture (recover energy back to grid or local storage) reduces operating cost
• Integrated AVL automation ecosystem (PUMA Open 2 / EMCON) with EtherCAT and CAN for modern test workflows
• Includes key conditioning systems (fuel, coolant, transmission oil) for stable, repeatable testing

Typical use cases

Transmission, differential and complete driveline durability, NVH and efficiency testing

Gearshift strategy development, TCU/ECU calibration and HIL/SIL integration

ICE, hybrid and EV subsystem validation with real-time CAN/EtherCAT I/O

Accurate reproduction of road, track and regulatory cycles (emissions testing) for correlation and certification support

Motorsport-grade development: transient track simulation, repeatability for back-to-back A/B testing, component validation

Core system specification

Power and drives

• AVL AFC 400/500 IGBT mains converter cabinets
• Common DC link for multi-axis 4-quadrant operation (regenerative)

Control and automation

• AVL EMCON with PUMA Open 2

• Broad AVL device driver library for integrated measurement/control

Cycle capability

Simulates transient and steady-state conditions (uphill/downhill loading), mixed drive cycles (e.g., NEDC, FTP, SFTP, CLTC), race tracks, or any custom trace for tight correlation to on-road/track data.

Energy storage emulation / battery emulator

• AVL E-Storage High-Dynamic system, 250 kW class, 800 V capability, integrated to PUMA with appropriate PDU/switching hardware

Included conditioning systems (repeatability + durability-ready)

Fuel measurement & conditioning (FlexFuel)

High-accuracy fuel measurement with temperature conditioning for repeatable test results. Designed for stable fuel temperature control during steady-state and transient programs.

Engine coolant conditioning (CONSYSCOOL 200)

Engine coolant conditioning system providing controlled coolant temperature management for consistent thermal conditions across durability and calibration testing.

Transmission cooling / conditioning

Transmission lube oil / fluid conditioning system with temperature and flow monitoring to maintain stable fluid conditions during endurance, efficiency and shift development testing.

• Shopping With Grays

Typically, auctions end at their posted closing time. There are some exceptions to this however, for example if there are any bids placed on a particular lot within 10 minutes of the auction closing time (the "Going, Going, Gone!" period). When this happens, the auction will be extended until there are no more bids placed within ten minutes of the last successful bid.

There is no limit to the number of times an online auction can be extended. This makes Grays work more like a live auction where the bidding does not stop as long as there is still interest in the product, rather than assigning an arbitrary cut-off time. To ensure that you do not get outbid, make sure you monitor the auction until you have won the item or enter an "AUTOBID" that you think will win!
