Overview

Weight control: design approach that removes unnecessary mass while protecting mission payload.

Tulkas provides design and production support for UAV projects, including body covers, load-bearing panels, internal structural supports, motor/propeller mounting-area parts, and custom composite sub-components.

UAV Airframe Components

Body covers and access panels

In UAV airframe components, every gram affects flight endurance and payload capacity. But weight reduction alone is not enough - the part's stiffness, connection points, vibration behavior, maintenance access, production repeatability, and assembly tolerances must all be considered together.

Part Examples

In UAV body components, every gram affects flight time and payload capacity. But low weight alone is not enough. Stiffness, interface points, vibration behavior, maintenance access, manufacturing repeatability, and assembly tolerances must be evaluated together.

Composite Manufacturing

Weight control: design approach that removes unnecessary mass while protecting mission payload.

Tulkas supports UAV programs with body covers, load-carrying panels, internal structural supports, motor and propeller interface parts, and special composite subcomponents.

Depending on scope, we can support part-level design, adaptation to an existing body, or production based on the customer’s main platform design.

No. Carbon fiber, fiberglass, or hybrid composites can be evaluated depending on weight, strength, cost, and production targets.

No. Zones close to high heat sources, or frequently revised early-stage prototype parts, can be better served by aluminum or 3D printing. This is assessed part by part.
