iED speaks to Clogworks Technologies CEO about Dark Matter designs

Following on from an additive manufacturing video filmed in cooperation with KTN last year, Peter Opdam, Clogworks Technologies’ CEO, featured in the summer edition of the Engineering Designer magazine (iED).

In the 3-page iED article, he explains the different steps he takes to create the Dark Matter UAV designs, the company’s trademark. The role the drone has to perform plays an important part, however the designs come from the knowledge of equipment capabilities as well as required attributes, such as great flight performance, weather-resistance, modularity, ruggedness, strength, ease of transportation and maintenance friendliness.

Peter also briefly expresses his views on where the drone industry is and its scope for the future. The number of drone uses increase everyday and at Clogworks Technologies we want them to benefit society!
