Elevating Cell Validation and Diagnostics with Integrated EIS
Feature
Maintaining battery safety and performance requires more
than basic electrical measurements. EIS offers deeper insights
by applying a small AC signal and analyzing the battery’s
response across a range of frequencies.
This non-invasive method reveals key internal characteristics
such as resistance, charge-transfer kinetics, and diffusion be-
havior – factors that are critical for understanding cell aging,
efficiency, and degradation mechanisms. In other words, EIS
can provide a frequency-dependent fingerprint of the electro-
chemical system, enabling a clearer understanding of what
happens inside the system throughout its lifecycle.
Designing the Battery Labs of Tomorrow
Tomorrow’s energy systems demand laboratories built for
flexibility, efficiency, and scalability. AVL delivers everything
needed for this task, from climate chambers and cyclers to
intelligent software. But what truly sets us apart is how we
rethink the lab itself.
Our in-house developed software AVL ONTEC makes planning
a battery test lab as simple as building with digital building
blocks. Every piece of equipment is available with its re-
al-world dimensions, updated directly from development. With
just a few clicks, entire facilities can be arranged, visualized,
and even explored in virtual reality – long before the first wall
is built.
This creates certainty where it matters most: Are escape
routes clear? Is there enough space for safe operation and
easy maintenance? How will the lab feel when people are actu-
ally working in it? AVL ONTEC answers these questions early,
turning potential challenges into confident decisions.
What makes the tool even more powerful is its flexibility.
Existing building data, customer models, and 3D scans can be
imported seamlessly, allowing every lab to be tailored precise-
ly to its environment. The result is a facility that is not only
efficient and safe but also future-ready.
AVL ONTEC combines cutting-edge technology with decades
of expertise to transform the complex task of lab planning into
a smooth, inspiring experience – bringing the laboratories of
tomorrow to life today.
Supporting Future Mobility Goals
AVL’s testing solutions directly address key customer challeng-
es in accuracy, scalability, and integration. By enabling faster
and more reliable validation, they shorten development cycles
and increase confidence in performance. OEMs and battery
manufacturers alike benefit from scalable and flexible sys-
tems that grow with their needs, while intelligent integration
of hardware and digital tools ensures safety and efficiency.
With this approach, AVL empowers customers to develop and
validate safe, durable, and sustainable battery cells – securing
the foundations for tomorrow’s mobility.
