As industries worldwide continue to demand faster, more efficient, and more accurate inspection technologies, Voliro is answering the call with the release of the Voliro T Version 5, a hardware and software upgrade that elevates aerial inspections to a new standard. After over five years of intensive development and collaboration with experts in the NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) industry, we are now introducing a more robust, reliable, and advanced version.
In this blog, we’ll explore what makes this release special and why these innovations make a difference to transform NDT inspection processes for industries facing challenging environments.
The introduction of a 5G module enables real-time data transfer to and from the Voliro Cloud. This allows health monitoring, proactive maintenance, and effortless software upgrades making inspection data management more efficient. For industries reliant on fast, accurate data, especially in areas like wind farms, offshore rigs, or remote industrial sites this upgrade is essential for boosting proactive maintenance, productivity and flexibility in inspections.
Why proactive maintenance: With real-time health monitoring, potential issues can be detected and addressed before they escalate, minimizing costly downtime and preventing equipment abnormalities.
Why boosting productivity: As part of the ongoing development of the Voliro T Version 5, operators will gain the ability to make immediate decisions based on live data, reducing delays in response time and improving the overall operational workflow.
Why remote flexibility: With further advancements, the Voliro T Version 5 will enable software upgrades and mission-critical adjustments from anywhere, supporting fully remote operations and reducing the need for on-site personnel.
The flight controller now receives data from the Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs) to provide early detection of potential motor abnormalities. This added layer of safety ensures that pilot operators can preemptively address problems before they arise, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.
With a triple-redundant, thermally controlled IMU and an advanced vibration isolation design, the new flight controller ensures superior processing power for precision and flight stability, even in GPS-denied environments, high-altitude zones, and strong winds. Combined with a new Ethernet interface, this upgrade significantly improves data transmission speed, giving operators more control and enabling seamless workflows during challenging inspections.
The improved tail motor and propeller further boost performance by increasing wind resistance and responsiveness, providing greater precision during demanding maneuvers.
Enhanced controller tuning enables more direct handling of operator inputs. It also improved the control of stability in turbulent situations, increasing the overall wind performance. Fly it to feel the difference!
A complete overhaul, featuring newly designed PCBs, enhanced antennas, and optimized antenna setups. These enhancements greatly boost system reliability and performance, especially for the FPV (First-Person View) cameras, reducing the risk of video stream interruptions.
Higher-quality materials have been selected, improving durability and steadiness to ensure that the Voliro T is not only better at its job at height but also able to withstand the harsh conditions it often faces, whether it’s inspecting corroded materials, high-temperature infrastructure, or operations in strong wind and high-altitude environments.
In addition to its enhanced internal components, the new Voliro T Version 5 offers longer flight times and better flight dynamics thanks to the following optimizations:
The overall design is 250 g lighter, improving the flight dynamics and increasing the flight time.
The release of the Voliro T Version 5 marks a significant milestone in the evolution of aerial inspections. As industries face more complex challenges ranging from maintaining aging infrastructure to ensuring safety in hazardous environments. The demand for time-efficient, safer, and more reliable inspection solutions will only grow. With Voliro’s continued focus on innovation and technological advancement, the new Voliro T Version 5 is designed to meet these demands and set new standards in the NDT inspection landscape.
