Structures for Drones and UAV Systems

Our water-soluble mandrels are used in the production of carbon-fibre structural components for drones and UAV systems, including arms, frames and closed-section beams. The technology enables complex internal geometries and monocoque components, optimising the stiffness-to-weight ratio, reducing assembly operations and ensuring high process repeatability.

Why Addyx in this sector

The Addyx advantage in the Defence sector

In the defence sector, reliability, repeatability and weight reduction are essential requirements. Addyx water-soluble mandrels make it possible to produce joint-free monocoque hollow structures, eliminating weak points and guaranteeing maximum structural integrity even in the most severe operating conditions.
