Confined, hard-to-reach environments such as sewer networks represent a constant challenge for inspection professionals. Against this backdrop, Multinnov, the French leader in robotic technologies, has designed the Roview2, a floating inspection robot at the cutting edge of innovation. Unique on the market, this robot is the only one able to float and navigate efficiently on water, while providing accurate and reliable data.
Stabilizing drones indoors or in confined spaces is a major challenge. Unlike outdoor environments, where GPS can provide precise data on a drone's position, confined environments do not allow the use of this type of technology. Multinnov, a leader in technological solutions for complex environments, has met this challenge by integrating visual odometry technology into its indoor drone, the Stereo2. This innovation enables the drone to maintain a stable, precise trajectory without the need for GPS.
Drones have experienced spectacular growth in recent years, establishing themselves as essential tools in many industrial sectors. Thanks to their flexibility, precision and ability to operate in complex environments, drones are revolutionizing fields such as inspection, maintenance and surveillance.
Railway maintenance plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficiency of the network. To maintain optimum performance and guarantee rapid intervention, industry players need to rely on advanced technologies.
TV inspection plays a crucial role in many industries, from monitoring underground infrastructure to inspecting industrial ducts and assessing installations in confined spaces.
Inspection in confined spaces is a major challenge for many industries, especially those handling hazardous substances or operating in high-risk environments. Places such as underground tanks, pipelines, chemical plants, and even nuclear or oil sites, represent environments that are often inaccessible and potentially dangerous for workers. The physical, chemical and biological hazards inherent in these environments make human intervention complex and risky.
The use of drones for confined-area inspections has become an indispensable solution in many industries, whether for tunnels, ducts, or other industrial spaces that are difficult to access. However, a common question remains: how far can a flying drone travel in these confined environments? This article explores the various factors influencing the distance covered, as well as solutions for optimizing drone performance in these complex environments.
In the industrial world, maintenance plays a crucial role in guaranteeing the reliability, safety and performance of installations. As infrastructures become increasingly complex, particularly in the energy sector, companies are constantly seeking to adopt innovative technologies to meet the challenges of inspection and maintenance.
Industrial chimneys, emblematic structures of industrial installations, play a key role in the evacuation of fumes and gases. Regular inspection is essential to ensure that they function properly, and to prevent risks such as wear, cracks and blockages. However, these inspections are often complex due to their height, difficult access and restrictive indoor conditions. Fortunately, indoor drones, such as Multinnov's Stereo2, offer an innovative and effective solution to these challenges. But how high can they operate?
Televisual inspection (TVI) has become an indispensable method in many industrial sectors. Whether for monitoring critical infrastructures, checking equipment status or preventing incidents, this technology offers greater precision and safety than traditional methods. With tools like the ITV robot, professionals can access hard-to-reach areas while limiting the risks to their teams. The Roview2, developed by Multinnov, is an excellent example of innovation in this field, combining efficiency, robustness and cutting-edge technology.
