July 7, 2021—VISCOY is now an authorized reseller of Flyability’s Elios and Elios 2, the world’s first collision-tolerant drones.
One of the leading providers of RVI tools in Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei has added Flyability’s indoor drones to the list of professional inspection tools that it offers.
“We are extremely excited and pleased to partner with Flyability in marketing their confined space UAVs in Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei,” says Vincent Lim, Managing Director at VISCOY. “The Elios 2 platform is, without doubt, the best-in-class UAV in the market for confined space flying.”
VISCOY currently serves a range of clients in industries such as Petrochemicals, Aerospace, and Marine & Offshore, as well as Urban Infrastructure. With the addition of the Elios 2 to its catalogue of NDT tools, the company can now offer those clients state-of-the-art remote visual sensing for internal inspections.
The Elios 2 indoor drone is safely contained within a carbon fiber cage, which gives inspectors the freedom to operate it in a variety of environments, as well as complete darkness using its LED lighting and thermal imagery.
The cage helps make the drone collision tolerant, so that it can collide and continue flying. This feature, combined with the high quality of the drone’s visual data, allows inspectors to conduct inspections remotely in tight, confined spaces that might otherwise pose a safety risk for human entry.
VISCOY leadership has expressed their excitement about leveraging the Elios 2 to help its clients remove inspectors from harm’s way by reducing their need for entering hazardous confined spaces in order to collect visual data. They are also pleased about the savings clients can realize by using the Elios 2 to significantly reduce downtimes for their internal inspections.
“Working with Flyability to bring the Elios 2 into markets in Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei has been a pleasure,” say Vincent Lim, Managing Director at VISCOY. “In addition to their high quality drones for internal inspections, we value the professional, open, and supportive manner in which their team has conducted our partnership. We look forward to a productive future together.”
In addition to offering the Elios 2 as an internal inspection solution for common inspection applications like storage tanks, pressure vessels, and chimneys, VISCOY plans to go a step farther and partner with asset owners and inspection service companies to help them develop new applications and use cases for the drone.
Along these lines, VISCOY has already developed several new use cases for the Elios 2, which include using it to conduct internal inspections of refuse chutes/shafts, false ceilings in buildings, potable water pipelines, and rainwater detention tanks.
