The International Drone Show (IDS) 2024 buzzed with innovation, and the Micro Technic team was right in the thick of it! We weren’t just there to witness the latest advancements in drone technology; we were also there to showcase our expertise in Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and comprehensive production services – key ingredients for taking drone projects to the next level.

A Collaborative Journey with Drone Volt

Our participation at the show was particularly meaningful due to our ongoing collaboration with Drone Volt. As Christian T. Ahler, R&D & Project Manager at Micro Technic, explains:

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Drone Volt on the development of their drones. Our collaboration highlights how Micro Technic can be a valuable partner throughout the entire drone development and manufacturing journey.“

Our partnership extends far beyond simple component assembly. Micro Technic’s DFM expertise played a crucial role in optimizing Drone Volt’s designs for manufacturability.

“During the development phase,” Christian continues, “we were able to utilize DFM principles to streamline Drone Volt’s designs, which ultimately translates to a smoother production process, cost-efficiency, and a more reliable end product.”

Kim Larsen, Managing Director of Drone Volt, echoed this sentiment:

“At first, we reached out to Micro Technic for a specific fix. But their expertise went much further. They took a deep dive into our drone system and identified ways to improve overall efficiency and reliability. Their Design for Manufacturability (DFM) capabilities were a true win– it’s something we simply didn’t have the resources for in-house. Micro Technic managing the entire DFM process saved us time and resources and eliminated the need to juggle multiple vendors. It’s this comprehensive approach that sets them apart. They focus on more than just fixing problems; they look for ways to elevate your product and make it production-ready.“
