Volz Servos, a specialist manufacturer of electromechanical rotary actuators, is supporting the UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) and AAM (advanced air mobility) industries with its wide selection of high-performance off-the-shelf and custom components.
Conversations at recent trade fairs such as AUVSI Xponential and Japan Drone Expo for Commercial UAS Market have confirmed to Volz once more the need for components that can be designed to perfectly match the needs of a certain project. These components also need to simultaneously guarantee durability, lightweight construction, and the ability to be certified as part of the system.
The market for UAVs and AAM is booming, with applications such as micro-logistics, Urban Air Mobility and last-mile transportation expanding all the time. The safety requirements and regulations aircraft that can support these applications correspond to those of regular planes and helicopters. So when it comes to choosing components during the development process of a new air vehicle, trusted, reliable and certifiable parts are crucial for ultimately receiving the certification required for operation.
“This is only possible with components that match the requirements to be certified as part of the whole system,” says Felix Thun, Director of Sales & Business Development at Volz Servos. “So to really drive the commercial use of drones, it is essential to focus on matching components right from the start.”
Phillipp Volz, CEO of Volz Servos, added: “Volz Servos recently added Aircraft Electronic Engineering (AEE) as a subsidiary – an EASA-approved production, maintenance and alternative design organization. The combination of small actuators for the drone industry, high quality and reliability, certifiability as well as experience and agility make Volz Servos unique in the market. It’s no wonder that a large number of companies active in this sector already rely on actuators from Volz Servos.”
