Reusable test racks for efficient environmental testing

Traditional environmental testing of automotive components has become more data-driven on its road toward electric and software-defined vehicles. Today, it typically requires a mix of general and customized test functionalities. Aucoteam has developed a modular test stand solution that allows flexible adjustment to changing requirements. The test stand comprises low-voltage, high-current and high-voltage test devices, as well as various communication protocols. Customers benefit from reusability of the test racks, and individual pricing schemes offer economic advantages. This ensures efficient validation and environmental testing of components across the entire supply chain.
