Uavos Inc. (Dover, Del., U.S.), a company operating in unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and stratospheric technologies, announces the successful production of another batch of high-performance composite rotor blades for unmanned helicopters. Critical to this production process is the Uavos Oven-500-2000 composite curing oven — equipment designed, manufactured and quality-assured entirely in-house by Uavos. The rotor blades produced by the company have already proven their durability and safety in the UAV industry, offering a service life of up to 3,000 hours.

To achieve this level of performance, Uavos engineers employ multilayer carbon fiber composite technology, precisely cured using the Oven-500-2000. The blade core is milled from approved, aviation-grade foam, ensuring an optimal strength-to-weight ratio, while the NACA 23012 airfoil profile provides high aerodynamic efficiency. For operation in demanding environments, an optional bonded stainless steel insert integrated into the helicopter blade’s leading edge is available, providing enhanced protection against erosion and impact.

Uavos’ composite curing ovens are not merely products for sale but equipment proven within the company’s own high-stakes manufacturing lines. From curing prepreg composite parts to post-curing high-temperature molds, Uavos’ ovens are recommended for aerospace, marine, automotive and R&D composite applications.

“We use Oven-500-2000 to cure the very parts that keep our helicopters airborne,” says Aliaksei Stratsilatau, founder and CEO at Uavos. “If it meets Uavos’ aerospace-grade requirements for flight-critical components, our customers can trust it for their own critical composite applications.”

The Oven-500-2000 distinguishes itself through rigorous compliance and manufacturing control. The ovens are CE marked, ensuring full compliance with essential EU health, safety and environmental requirements. Uavos manufactures and quality-assures every unit in-house. This vertical integration guarantees that every oven leaving the facility meets the same exacting standards used to produce Uavos unmanned aircraft.
