The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, is rapidly increasing across a range of defense applications. From battlefield information, surveillance, and reconnaissance, to targeting, package delivery, and attack, drones provide the functional advantage of remote operation with minimum supervision and provide access to hard to reach locations or those that create vulnerable positioning for human forces. With the expanding possibilities drones provide for battlefield advantages, modern armed forces will require technologies to make UAVs faster, more agile, reliable, and robust.
Carpenter Technology modeled drone motor performance with an advanced material solution to investigate improved UAV performance. In this webinar, we discuss advanced alloy solutions for faster and longer range drones using advanced alloys in the power dense motors.
