Protecting Your High-Flying Investments: Custom Cases, Crates and Foam Cushioning Systems for Drones and UAVs
18 December 2024
Drones and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are now indispensable tools across a vast array of engineering, videography, industrial, agricultural, law enforcement, and military applications.
That’s why we’ve invested heavily in developing extensive capabilities in the proper protection of these often-fragile (and extremely valuable) products.
Proven track record
In fact, UAV manufacturers, as well as corporate and government entities, regularly rely on us to design and fabricate rugged yet easy-to-use packaging solutions to protect mission-critical drone equipment during transport, storage and field use.
We have custom-engineered 30-foot-long crates for the transport of large UAV wings. In another recent instance, a high-end military drone manufacturer requested our services to redesign their existing drone casing after it became incompatible with a new, updated drone design.
Our packaging engineers collaborated with the manufacturer in the absence of drawings and specifications to develop a custom military-grade roto-mold case and foam cushioning system that delivered precision fit, durability, accessibility, and ease of use.
Both manufacturer and end-user can open the case, place the drone inside without disassembly and immediately snap the case closed. With this case, the drone is effectively ready for immediate field use when unloaded.
Full in house design and production capabilities
We are a fabricator with full inhouse design capabilities, not a broker, and manufacture in-house.
That means we can apply our expertise and experience as one of the USA’s top full technical dealers for Pelican-Hardigg cases — and an authorized technical dealer of SKB Cases — to customize an appropriate hard case for your particular application.
Improve organization and useability
Another advantage of our inhouse design and fabrication capabilities is that we can custom-design foam dividers to better organize, cushion and protect sensitive parts such as controllers, fragile optics, payloads, gimbals, switches and antennae, battery packs, and spare parts for longer life and less risk of breakage.
Our foam inserts assemblies are extremely precise as we use advanced water-jet cutting technology to achieve a snug fit that minimizes movement and offers a premium, elegant look.
Experts at government paperwork
We are experts at government paperwork and processing—and certified—so you don’t need to worry about bureaucracy, and you can focus on your project.
We understand the specialized program management and tendering requirements (such as strict quality clauses or fixed price inputs) of primes and tier one and two suppliers that operate under large government contracts and can work with industry to support their bids for government work.
Guaranteed short lead times
Our Smart. Packaging. Fast Guaranteed! Program means we can guarantee short lead times for both prototypes and production quantities of your drone and UAVs cases with foam inserts.
Our standard delivery time for molded cases with foam inserts is just 10-15 days but we can expedite deliveries in as little as two days if required. You can learn more about our industry-first Smart. Packaging. Fast Guaranteed! delivery promise here.
