Pickering Interfaces to demo EV BMS test rig at Automotive Testing

Pickering Interfaces will showcase its Battery Management System (BMS) test demo on booth 1188 at Automotive Testing Expo 2023, Europe, at Messe Stuttgart in Germany from 13-15 June 2023.

The world's leading show for automotive testing, development, and validation, Automotive Testing Expo takes place annually in Detroit, Shanghai, and Stuttgart, covering ADAS and autonomous vehicle test, electric and hybrid powertrain test, battery and range test, EMI and NVH test and analysis, and the full spectrum of test and validation technologies for full-vehicle, component, and systems development. Over 400 exhibitors will showcase the latest products, services, and technologies in measurement tools, test rigs, simulation packages, durability testing, crash testing, dynamometers, emission measurement systems, and dynamic assessment tools, as well as proving grounds and test facilities.

Outlining the BMS test demo, Paul Bovingdon, Simulation Product Manager at Pickering explains "With increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), one significant challenge to be tackled is the effective testing and validation of Battery Management Systems (BMS). Using modular, PXI-based switch and simulation modules offers many advantages in BMS hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test, including flexibility to optimize the test system to meet exact requirements; simple modification to address evolving needs; and an open, industry-standard architecture that promotes system longevity and mitigates obsolescence, while providing seamless integration of multi-vendor instrumentation modules."
