                                                                  Measurement scheme for electric vehicle drive system.


I. Introduction

With the increasing attention to energy and environmental issues, electric vehicles are developing rapidly due to their advantages such as being clean and pollution-free, having high energy efficiency, low noise, and diverse energy sources. As a means of transportation, electric vehicles operate in a complex and changeable working environment. Their motor drive systems need to meet performance requirements such as high reliability, high efficiency, good adjustment performance, and low cost. Therefore, the testing of electric vehicle motor drive systems is an important research content. The following scheme uses the British Voltech PM6000 high-precision power analyzer as the main measurement equipment to provide a detailed description of the electric vehicle motor drive system. As shown in Figure 1, the quantities to be tested for the motor drive system are: four channels of current and four channels of voltage of the motor controller, including the input DC bus voltage and current and the output three-phase AC voltage and current values; the output torque and speed of the motor.

II. Scheme configuration list:

  1. One British Voltech PM6000 four-channel high-precision power analyzer (including  four 1A shunts,    with a basic accuracy of 0.02%).
  2. Three Voltech CT1000 closed-loop current transformers (for AC current testing, with two ranges: 100:1 or 1000:1. For small currents, 100:1 can be used. For large currents, 1000:1 can be used. The maximum primary side current allowed is 1000 Arms, with an accuracy of 0.2%).
  3. One LEM current sensor IT400-S (for both AC and DC use. The maximum primary side current allowed is 400 Arms, with an accuracy of 0.0033%).
  4. One set of Voltech VPAS software.
  5. One NI USB6009 multifunctional data acquisition box (used to calculate test torque, speed, efficiency, etc.).
  6. One set of speed and torque sensors (to be prepared by the customer).
  7. One computer (to be prepared by the customer).

III. Configuration description:


  1. The PM6000 is a multi-channel high-precision power analyzer developed and produced by Voltech in the UK. It can be configured with up to six measurement channels. The basic accuracy is 0.02%. The bandwidth is up to 10 MHz, and the sampling rate is up to 40 MSPS (millions of samples per second). The excellent common-mode signal suppression ability ensures high accuracy and reliability of measurement. The clear color display screen and intuitive menu system make the operation more convenient. The provided Math calculation function greatly improves the practicability of the instrument, enabling customers to perform calculations in various ways, such as the conversion efficiency of input and output. The PM6000 can directly input a voltage of 1400 Vrms. For the current part, there are 30 A shunts or 1A shunts to choose from. For testing small currents, a 1A shunt can be selected to accurately measure the small current signals converted by current transformers and Hall sensors. If other product lines need to frequently test currents below 30A and have high requirements for testing accuracy, a 30A shunt can be selected and the current is directly input for testing. For the rear structure diagram of the PM6000, see Figure 3. In terms of instrument interfaces, the PM6000 has RS232, Ethernet port, VGA display interface, printer interface, and P/S 2 keyboard and mouse interfaces.

  2. The LEM IT400-S current sensor is a high-precision, wide-bandwidth (DC~100KHZ), closed-loop current sensor with an accuracy of 0.0033%. It is used for AC and DC current testing, and the maximum measured current is 400 Arms. It requires ±15V voltage supply. In addition, if a larger current needs to be measured, IT600-S or IT700-S can be selected.

  1. The VPAS analysis software provides full control and data acquisition capabilities for the PM6000 in a computer environment. The software operates through the Ethernet or R232 interface of the PM6000. The computer can be directly connected to a PM6000 or connected through a standard local area network, providing great flexibility. The software also integrates auxiliary analog quantity testing, such as torque and speed, providing convenient calculations and data recording for all test items.

  3. The speed and torque sensor is used to convert mechanical energy into analog electrical signals and then transmit them to the NI USB6009 multifunctional data acquisition card.
  4. One computer is used to install the Voltech VPAS software

IV. Test description:


  1. Electrical parameter measurement part.
    Completed by the PM6000 power analyzer combined with corresponding Hall sensors and current transformers. The specific wiring method is as follows:
    Connection method | PM6000 measurement channel | Test item
    DC bus input | Measurement channel 1 | DC voltage, DC current, power
    AC A output | Measurement channel 2
    AC B output | Measurement channel 3
    AC C output | Measurement channel 4
    Voltage (effective value, peak value), current (effective value, peak value), power (active, reactive, apparent power), crest factor, power factor, harmonics (voltage, current, power), total harmonic distortion
    Math function (built-in function of PM6000) | Input-output conversion efficiency (real-time efficiency)
  2. Analog quantity test (speed, torque, mechanical power).
    The analog signal converted by the speed and torque sensor is connected to the NI USB6009, and then connected to the computer with the VPAS software installed through a USB cable. Use the VPAS software to display speed and torque and calculate mechanical power.

V. Supplementary description of the scheme:
The above scheme only configures four test channels (i.e., PM6000-4). If it is necessary to test high-power inverter products, two additional test channels (i.e., PM6000-6) need to be added, and at the same time, three more CT1000s need to be added. With PM6000-6, all synchronous tests of high-power inverters can be realized.

Small excavators are suitable for a variety of working environments, rather than manual working environments. Main users, ditches, landscaping, cable lines, trees planted on top of mountains, greenhouses for vegetables, improved agricultural land, basements, concrete, are other small Spaces. The machine adopts domestic engine, mechanical operation, ergonomic optimization, and unique joystick optimization to make the driver's operation more convenient and comfortable.

Small excavators can be used to dig greenhouses and ditches. This is a small excavator that can be used indoors. Saving labor and space is a rare advantage. It is widely used in the water business. Low cost purchase and high survival rate is everyone's evaluation. Not surprisingly, microshovels are also being used to build power projects. Filling the rod was previously a difficult task, as one had to use manual drilling and it was inefficient. Now everyone is using small excavators, nearly ten times faster than before. The other is called a multi-purpose mini excavator: not only does it have a bucket, it can also damage the ground and be equipped with a crushing hammer to tear down the house. Adding an auger can be a great aid in gardening tree holes and planting. Compared with ordinary excavators, micro drilling machines are small in size, easy to operate, and choose the built environment that many people like. Today, Xiaobian introduces how micro-drilling machines can help orchard construction in order to better understand micro-drilling machines.

Small excavator is also known as small mining machinery, the definition of small excavator is also different, such as: in the country where the excavator loader is sold (such as the United Kingdom, France and Italy), 1 to 3 tons of small excavator products are the mainstream. In countries where the use of excavator loaders is not very common (such as Germany), it is more inclined to use 4-6 tons of products. However, almost all countries tend to buy larger equipment, so we conclude that the definition of small excavators is 1 to 6 tons of excavators can be called small excavators, of which 2.7 to 3.0 tons of products accounted for a larger proportion, the reason is that they can easily use common transport vehicles for ground transfer. Small excavators benefit from their small size and become ideal equipment for earthmoving applications mainly in urban areas.

We’re just a few weeks away from SEMA 2017, and Mike and Jim Ring of Ringbrothers are burning the candle at both ends and in the middle to get three cars done for the show.  They took time out of their busy schedule to talk to us on the podcast, though.

These sibling started out as two regular guys running their dad’s repair shop, and amazing as it may sound, they still churn out production collision work to keep the lights burning.  But for a good chunk of the year, they’re banging out some of the coolest cars you’ve ever laid eyes on.

Witness 2014’s “Recoil,” the killer ’66 Chevelle that lit up social media after it was introduced in the Royal Purple booth that year.

Under the hood, the ’66 Chevelle features a Wegner Motorsports LS7 V-8, breathed on by a Whipple supercharger for 980 horsepower.  One-off fuel rail covers exactly match the design of the blower’s case.  The fuel injection system comes from Holley, with an Aeromotive fuel cell and pump.

The brothers are hard at work on three vehicles for the show this year, and as we talked, they emailed their renderings.

The first is an AMC Javelin AMX.  We’ve seen some pretty wild two-seat AMX customs before, but it’s about time the four-seat Javelin AMX got its due.  We’re dying to see what this one looks like when it’s finished.

The second is SEMA fodder: a 1969 Dodge Charger.  But once Ringbrothers have their way with it, it’ll be stretched, widened, lowered and stuffed with the latest 1,000-hp mill from the SEMA floor.
