                           lead to a particular importance of the efficiency of such drive units, especially for electric
                           mobility. The University of Applied Sciences (UAS) South Westphalia developed a
                           modular and highly flexible test concept for small gearboxes in order to optimize testing
                           setup and experimental procedure.
