As part of an OEM program for third-party drone manufacturers, the carbon fiber rotor blades were subjected to high centrifugal loads without structural integrity and damage.

Drone manufacturer Uavos Inc., headquartered in Mountain View, California, has announced that its 50kg maximum take-off weight (MTOW) helicopter main rotor blades have successfully completed overload structural testing.

The test, conducted by Alter Technology Tüv Nord S.A.U. (Seville, Spain), confirmed the excellent structural integrity and manufacturing quality of the Uavos composite drone rotor blades, marking another important step in the company's OEM partnership program for third-party drone manufacturers.

Rigorous testing verifies the blade's excellent performance under high centrifugal loads, simulating conditions well beyond the standard operating limits. During the test, the rotor blades were subjected to a maximum simulated centrifugal load of 7,390 Newtons (753.32 kg) and a dynamometer measured a dynamic load of 389 Newtons (39.65 kg). The deformation values of all measurement points were controlled within the allowable range of ±36.3 mm, and no visible damage was found during the test and subsequent inspections.

"We use a carbon fiber prepreg process to manufacture our blades and ensure the reliability and safety of our products in real life through strict quality control," said Aliaksei Stratsilatau, founder and CEO of Uavos. Laboratory testing, on the other hand, gives customers more confidence in our published specifications. "

At present, the global transportation industry is accelerating the transformation and upgrading to intelligence, green, digital, lightweight, and ultra-high-speed, and composite materials have become the key materials to break through the technical bottleneck of the industry, achieve cost reduction, efficiency increase and green development by virtue of their core advantages such as light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance and excellent designability.
