AVL Focus - Issue 2025

igital intelligence comes to life at the AVL Technical

­Center in Cavriago, Italy, where the AVL SmartSphere

­invites visitors to experience AVL’s smart solutions

in ­action. This immersive showroom connects innovation

with practical applications in engineering and testing.

Interactive monitors provide live access to innovative tools

such as AVL Maintenance Manager™, AVL Smart Reports™,

AVL Equipment View™, and AVL ATENE™, all fully integrat-

ed into the facility’s day-to-day operations. An augmented

reality (AR) corner powered by HoloLens adds a new

dimension of interactivity, allowing users to explore virtual

equipment, dashboards, and service workflows in 3D.

This dedicated space goes beyond traditional demonstra-

tions. It represents AVL’s commitment to making digital

transformation both accessible and value driven. By

combining predictive models, artificial intelligence, and IoT

infrastructure, the SmartSphere helps customers under-

stand how digitalization can drive efficiency, reliability, and

sustainability in real-world environments.

As part of our evolving smart and connected portfolio, the

AVL SmartSphere sets a new standard in how digital tools

are presented and experienced. Here, visitors are at the

heart of AVL’s digital transformation, where data, intelli-

gence, and connectivity converge. The space invites you

to explore, engage, and discover how AVL is shaping the

future.

s e-motor production scales rapidly, traditional end-

of-line (EoL) testing reaches its limits. Conventional

dyno-based systems are slow, costly, and ener-

gy-intensive and hence don’t pay off for high-throughput

demands of modern manufacturing.

AVL E-Motor TS™ End of Line Unloaded introduces a

smarter approach. Instead of applying mechanical load,

the system captures all relevant e-motor phenomena and

anomalies during an unloaded test – with unmatched preci-

sion and repeatability. Like an echocardiogram for electric

motors, it delivers a unique fingerprint for every unit.

Going beyond simple pass/fail checks, AI-powered

­analytics identify fault types and root causes, trace issues

back to specific assembly steps, and even support diagnos-

tics for motors already in the field. With takt times down to

60 seconds, this system is up to 70 % faster than conven-

tional test setups – enabling a dramatic increase in testing

speed. Advanced sensor configurations ensure reliable

results even at low motor speeds, eliminating the need

for full-speed runs while maintaining continuous opera-

tion. A streamlined system design with fewer, low-power

components results in a compact layout with a minimized

footprint and enhanced energy efficiency.

The result: a scalable and cost-effective quality assurance

solution for fast testing that goes far beyond basic OK/NOK

evaluation functionality. It delivers precise assessments

for every e-motor, turning production testing into a true

strategic advantage.
