Educational Test Rig for Non-Standard Electric Machines

This paper describes the construction of a test bench usable for testing of non-standard electric machines, i. e. electric machines with non-standard mounting interface, rated speed etc. The test rig is adopted to use a standard induction machine as a load for tested machines via variable transmission element. It is equipped with torque transducer to be able to measure the power transmitted through torque between both machines on the test bench. Besides the construction of the test rig, the paper further includes initial measurement performed on a BLDC motor for electric trial motorcycle.
