Drones and Robots – Green Transition/Challenging Environments
Drones and robots play a crucial role in the green transition by performing essential inspection and maintenance tasks without the need to transport humans over long distances or to otherwise inaccessible locations.

Drones and robots play a crucial role in the green transition by performing essential inspection and maintenance tasks without the need to transport humans over long distances or to otherwise inaccessible locations. This approach extends the lifespan of the equipment being inspected, with minimal or no human transportation-related carbon footprint.
However, many of these locations pose challenging operational environments for the technology, such as extreme temperatures, water, salt, humidity, icing, and electrical conditions. Understanding these challenges is crucial for the lifespan of drones and robots and, consequently, their impact on CO2 consumption.
Come and learn more about drones and robots in the green transition and how they are designed to withstand challenging environments. Additionally, explore how HCA contributes to drone development and take an exciting tour of FORCE Technology’s facilities at Lindø.
The seminar aims to provide companies developing drones and robots with insights into how their technology can function in environments challenging in terms of water, humidity, icing, aggressive gases, etc. This includes understanding the impact on the design of the drone or robot and gaining insights into testing possibilities. Companies will also learn about the opportunities for customized manufacturing with robots.
Target Audience: Companies developing drones and robots for demanding environments such as agriculture, offshore, and industry.
Outcome: Companies gain knowledge to address environmental impacts from the surroundings in the development of their technology.
