Precise testing, customized automation – test bench solutions for demanding applications

When off-the-shelf solutions reach their limits, that’s when our work begins: We develop custom test benches for industrial, scientific and safety-critical applications. Whether mechanical, electrical, climatic or hydraulic—we combine custom test mechanics with intelligent test automation. The result is reliable, repeatable and precisely documented test processes—tailored to your parts, components or systems.

With over 35 years of experience in test bench design and a track record of successfully completed projects, AUCOTEAM is among the leading specialists in Berlin and beyond. Our test benches are used in the automotive (high-current / high-voltage), energy, medical and railway sectors.

An Overview of Our Services

Whether it’s automated endurance testing, complex connector testing, or a custom test stand for automotive components—we deliver projects of any scale. Our solutions range from manually operated test equipment to fully automated test systems with PLC control, LabVIEW integration and data interfaces to manufacturing IT. We support you from the initial concept through to a functionally tested, ready-to-use test system—including technical documentation, CE-compliant commissioning and training.

Our portfolio includes:

Design and assembly of test benches for mechanical, electrical, thermal, hydraulic and climatic testing
Modular test stations – configurable for development, quality testing and laboratory use
Integration into existing laboratories, production lines or IT systems
PLC-based control (e.g. Siemens S7, WAGO), data networking via Profibus, Ethernet, CAN, LIN and SENT
Data collection, test plan management, logging, visualization
EMC-compliant design, VDE-compliant wiring, CE marking

System Architecture & Interfaces

Our test benches feature a modular, future-proof design:

  • Mechanics: custom-designed structures, mounts, sample guidance, test chambers
  • Control technology: Siemens S7, WAGO, Safety PLC, emergency stop circuits, sensor integration
  • Measurement technology: real-time measurement of force, pressure, voltage, current, temperature, flow
  • Actuators: servo drives, pneumatics, hydraulics, motor test modules
  • Software: configurable test sequences, test reports, error management
  • Communication: CAN bus, TCP/IP, SENT, serial interfaces

Thanks to their modular architecture, our test benches can be expanded at any time and can be reconfigured for new test specimens—while maintaining high stability and ease of use.
