Testing services & testing infrastructure

Test center for electric drive systems and power electronics

At the KIEPE Test Center, we test and validate electric drive systems and power electronic components under realistic, reproducible conditions. With powerful test benches, modern measurement technology, and many years of engineering expertise, we support manufacturers and developers in the development, validation, and approval of their products.

Whether complete powertrains, individual components, or customer-specific load profiles—our tests cover a wide range of power and voltage ranges and are suitable for applications in rail, e-mobility, commercial vehicles, and industrial drive systems. Tests can be carried out by our experienced test center team, together with your specialists, or on a project-specific basis.
