Electric ‘flying car’ manufacturer simulates flight loads with ACS testing systems using Siemens technologies

Electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft promise to revolutionize urban transportation by easing traffic congestion and reducing carbon emissions. Safe operation depends upon the ultra-reliable performance of their electric motors. To ensure that performance, a leading eVTOL maker is using a four-axis test dynamometer from ACS built on a tight schedule with Siemens drives and induction motors.
