INDUSTRIAL SERVICES
The Darkwing team has developed drone-based solutions for the manual, time-consuming processes that still exist within the industrial sector.
Industries we service
Drones have taken industrial inspections to new heights. Darkwing Aerials conducts visual, thermal, Lidar 3D & NDT inspections, surveys of structures at height, live plant structures and hard-to-reach areas at onshore and offshore oil and gas installations. We make use of industry-leading aerial technology, cameras and inspection gear.
We provide aerial services on live transmission lines and structures in the form of close-up visual, thermal & Lidar 2D/3D mapping and Corona detection using UV cameras. We make use of industry-leading drones (Multirotor and Fixed Wing), cameras and inspection gear.
We perform aerial surveys on wind turbines and solar parks providing quick, accurate and in-depth inspections of assets in the form of close-up visual and thermal inspections. Darkwing and their affiliate companies have more that 10 years experience in wind turbine inspections.
The Darkwing team developed an Ultrasonic Thickness testing device to be secured onto a drone in order to conduct thickness testing on ship hulls, storage tanks and various other steel structures such as piping.
Darkwing can eliminate at-height inspections on telecommunication towers and structures by making use of Z30 zoom cameras during asset integrity inspections. With the added benefit of the Terrestrial and Aerial Lidar capability, we can provide a comprehensive survey of assets, saving time and costs and eliminating at-height inspection risks.
The mining industry is vast and individual mines can cover large areas. It can be difficult to get a proper overview of operations on such a large scale. Drones, both fixed wing and multirotor, can use their aerial capabilities to provide valuable information. Using our advanced drones and sensors, Darkwing can produce:
• Geo-Referenced Orthomosaics
• DEM (Digital Elevation Models) • LiDAR Dense Point Clouds
• 3D Photogrammetry Models
• DTM’s (Digital Terrain Models)
• Quantities for stockpiles and open pit mines• Aerial HD Imagery
Engineering requires precision to be successful and drones can provide that edge. Using our advanced drones and sensors, Darkwing can produce:
• Geo-Referenced Orthomosaics
• DEM (Digital Elevation Models) • LiDAR Dense Point Clouds
• 3D Photogrammetry Models
• DTM’s (Digital Terrain Models)
• CAD drawings for planning and development
