We would like to have your problems

Through our testing facilities in Graz and Friedrichshafen, we offer testing services based on our product portfolio to address complex and diverse challenges in the fields of drive technology and energy systems.

Complete vehicle testing

In-house vehicle testing and application under real driving conditions. Integration of vehicle, road and tyre models of assistance systems.

Function-based testing

Partially or fully electric powertrains and the ongoing development of driver assistance systems and autonomous driving have increased the complexity and application costs for validation.
The KS R2R testing technology and methodology uses virtual components and units under test, as well as detailed environmental simulations, to make the development and functional validation processes safer and more efficient even when requirements change.

Designed for performance

Rapid control using R2R frequency converter technology, synchronicity of all the axes, realistic simulation of powertrain vibration, handling of bias and backlash and real torque distribution enable testing of the highest level.

Our high-precision test systems are tailored to the specific requirements of these technologies and ensure the safety, efficiency and durability of the tested fuel cell products.

Efficient battery storage testing

Our testing technology portfolio for batteries and electrical energy storage systems offers comprehensive solutions for quality assurance and performance evaluation. We develop high-precision test systems that are specifically designed for the requirements of batteries and energy storage systems. Our battery simulators are highly dynamic sources and sinks that are used for battery, fuel cell and inverter testing as well as fast charging systems and testers or on powertrain test beds.

Efficient inverter development under realistic conditions

We implement turnkey PowerHIL test systems in which real electrical components such as inverters are connected to a simulated environment in order to test their behaviour under realistic conditions already at an early stage of development – including voltage, current and power – without the need for a full prototype or field test.

Test systems for clean air

The results from emission measurements must be representative and suitable for comparison with each other, as the relevant standards and directives require. Measurement methods must ensure high selectivity with minimal cross-sensitivity to ensure precise results. In addition, compliance with legal limits must be safeguarded by means of suitable monitoring mechanisms. The test systems from KS Engineers cover it all.

Power Conversion (P2X)

With our experience and know-how in the field of energy technology, we offer solutions for efficient energy conversion and supply. Proprietary developments in power converter technology, in-depth knowledge in the conditioning of process media for electrochemical systems and advanced methods in control engineering make us a competent partner for innovative energy system projects.

Energy Storage

As a long-standing manufacturer of battery simulators and testers, we have amassed extensive expertise and know-how in the field of battery storage, which we transfer seamlessly to the development of energy storage systems and their automation and optimization. As an alternative to battery-electric energy storage systems, we also offer solutions using H2 technology, biogas systems, heat storage and electromechanical systems.

Energy & Media Distribution

We combine our technologies to create customized and comprehensive solutions for stable and sustainable energy and media distribution. Depending on the respective application, we plan and implement the distribution of energy such as electricity, gas or heat as well as media such as cooling water, fuels, hydrogen or compressed air.

Charging Systems & Infrastructure

As a system integrator but also as a provider of individual fast-charging systems, we plan and implement customized solutions for your charging applications. Intelligently networked charging systems ensure an efficient and reliable energy supply that is tailored to the needs of fleet operators, for example. We also offer comprehensive service and maintenance packages to safeguard the longevity and performance of your charging infrastructure.

Media Supply

The right infrastructure for all performance classes.
We design and build systems tailored to your specific requirements for supplying test centres, facilities and individual test beds with energy (electricity, fuel, gas, etc.), process cooling in the form of cooling/cold water, compressed air, process water (purified water) and steam for controlling humidity. In addition, planning and installing heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, exhaust disposal, safety engineering (fire alarms) and complete automation of all these systems is also part of our infrastructure expertise.

Media Conditioning

Our know-how in the area of conditioning systems creates reliable, realistic and reproducible conditions. We design and implement the media conditioning required for your application. To do so, we draw from a broad range of systems that have already been realized and are able to tailor these to suit your exact needs, or we can design an entirely new system specifically for you. We use cutting edge measurement and control engineering throughout.

Turnkey PEM-Electrolyzers

The production of green hydrogen using electrolysis plays a crucial role in the energy transition. KS Engineers offers customised solutions for this in output levels of 5 MW nd has the flexibility needed to cater to customer needs.

Load Management

By controlling and adapting energy consumption to current availability, load peaks can be avoided and energy efficiency increased. We implement control systems that continuously monitor energy consumption and adjust distribution in real time to ensure optimum efficiency. Similarly, in the area of media supply, cooling or ventilation systems, for example, are dynamically adapted to current demand, resulting in higher energy efficiency and lower operating costs.
