Uavos Inc. (Mountain View, Calif., U.S.) has been selected by emergency aerial services provider  (Madrid, Spain), a European company specializing in aerial emergency services and critical operations, to supply composite main rotor blades for its Lumes unmanned helicopter platform. This collaboration reinforces Uavos’ position as a trusted OEM supplier of advanced rotorcraft components to international unmanned platform operators.

The delivered rotor blades are engineered using advanced composite materials to ensure high resistance to overload and fatigue; reduced weight and enhanced aerodynamic performance; and long service life and low-maintenance requirements.

The blades have passed rigorous qualification tests, including overload, fatigue and environmental performance evaluations, ensuring their compliance with strict operational standards. Uavos says its rotor blades are an ideal match for multi-role unmanned helicopters operating in challenging conditions.

“We are committed to developing the latest technology to support and enhance the emergency aerial services we already provide to more than 50 customers across three continents,” notes John Bag, Group CEO, Avincis. “Lumes is one of the key products in the portfolio of innovations we are currently working on and Uavos will be an important partner in the journey to bringing this UAS platform to market in the near future.”

The collaboration is part of the Biodiversity Project, funded by the Xunta de Galicia within the framework of the Civil UAVs Initiative.
