Developing and Testing Electric Motor Drives and their Controllers

Electric motors power our vehicles, run our factories, and drive our appliances. Designing and testing motor drives and controls comes with some challenges such as:

Developing robust and accurate control designs for motor drives such as for robots
Testing the controllers at the signal level, and
Testing the motor drives with real power flows

Watch this webinar and discover how Simulink^® and Speedgoat test systems let you prototype motor control designs, and test motor drives and their embedded controllers.

Learn how a fully connected model-based environment, digital twin simulation, and modular HIL testbenches accelerate development and enable end-to-end test automation.

Software and hardware demonstration in this session will cover:

Rapid prototyping of control designs and testing them with the actual electric motor.
Test control designs for a motor drive at the high power levels using the AVL SPECTRA Universal Inverter.
Running a digital twin of the motor connected to the embedded controller for verification of its functions (Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing - HIL)
Emulating electric motors including power amplifiers to test the inverter at full power: motor emulation (Power-HIL Testing)
Virtual commissioning of the supervisory controller of a robot arm
