Carbon fiber tubes/pipes for industrial drones which requirements much high than consumer drones
There is no clear definition of consumer drones and industrial drones. The main differences between the two are:
- From the equipment installed: Generally speaking, the most installed equipment on consumer drones is cameras, equipped with gimbal and image transmission. Industrial-grade drones are generally equipped with various professional detection equipment according to different industry needs, such as optical cameras, thermal infrared cameras, hyperspectral cameras, lidar, atmospheric detectors, tilt camera systems, megaphones, searchlights, etc.
- In terms of application fields, consumer drones are mostly used for personal entertainment, photography creation, low-cost film and television creation, and television stations. Industrial-grade drones can be used for cargo transportation, professional film and television shooting, terrain survey, field search, rescue, military purposes and special missions.
- In terms of target users, most of the users targeted by consumer drones are aerial photography enthusiasts and ordinary consumers. They pay more attention to the portability and ease of operation of the aircraft, and are also very concerned about the price. Users want to buy the "best drone". Good product (value for money)”. Industrial-grade drones are mainly produced for professional customization by industry users, focusing on the integrity of the solution. Users hope to buy the "most suitable product." It can realize the three industrial protections (fireproof, rainproof, and dustproof) and work normally in various complex environments such as rain and snow, alpine areas, high temperature fires, electromagnetic interference, etc. Industrial-grade drones have higher requirements in terms of endurance, load capacity, safety and reliability, etc., and most of them are customized production. The output is generally small, and the selling price is generally higher. It can be said that users of consumer drones "see the world from the sky", while users of industrial drones "use the sky to change the world."
So the carbon fiber tubes/pipes or customized parts for industrial drones, normally has to be specific designed by both sides together.
