This self-service tool is the first of its kind to enable the installation of bird diverters using off-the-shelf DJI M300 and M350 drones, widely used by utilities around the world. The new kit enhances safety, efficiency, and utility for drone operators in the energy sector.
The RAPTOR CLAMP Drone Kit allows electric utilities to address wildlife protection needs by installing line markers that improve visibility and help prevent bird collisions with power lines.
By enabling this installation via drones, the kit eliminates the need for traditional methods like bucket trucks or helicopters, significantly reducing safety risks for lineworkers. Furthermore, the integration of this tool into existing drone programs maximizes the return on investment for utilities, offering them a convenient and flexible way to perform installations.
Designed to optimize productivity, the kit can carry and deploy multiple bird diverters in a single flight, making it an efficient solution for large-scale operations. It also features a quick-change carriage system that allows operators to reload diverters with minimal downtime, ensuring continuous and effective deployment.
This innovation not only enhances wildlife protection but also introduces a safer, faster, and more cost-effective approach to managing overhead power lines. By expanding the capabilities of commonly used DJI M300 and M350 drones, the RAPTOR CLAMP Drone Kit delivers greater value for drone operators while streamlining critical tasks for utility providers.
