Motor and Drive

Overcome EMI, Improve Accuracy & Perform Rapid Analysis in Motor Testing/Mapping

Mike Hoyer

Motor testing and design presents many challenges to making safe and accurate

measurements including:

  • Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI) (i.e. galvanic, inductive, capacitive and radiation)

  • Higher voltages and slew rates (industry trends)

  • Cable management, shielding and connections

  • Sensor accuracy, connectivity, grounding and shielding

  • Mechanical noise (torque ripple)

  • Electrical noise (harmonics)

  • Amplifier and signal accuracy, noise and shielding


Overcoming the many challenges can often take many hours and/or days of setup and testing and can sometimes be near impossible. This presentation will explain the many challenges and offer details on how to conquer these issues while greatly saving resources, i.e. time.


Learn how to mitigate Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI), map torque ripple (mechanical

noise), measure harmonics (electrical noise), improve accuracy, achieve uncompromised safety and rapidly calculate and map Measurement Uncertainty (MU) for every setpoint in your Electric Powertrain Measurements using a future proof testing solution.


Takeaways:

  • Ways to greatly improve accuracy and safety in powertrain measurements

  • Learn how to overcome EMI issues in powertrain measurements

  • Rapidly map Measurement Uncertainty for every set point in powertrain measurements

  • Map torque ripple (mechanical noise) in powertrain measurements

  • Measure harmonics (electrical noise) in powertrain measurements
