Daniel Richter, in charge of Hextronics' electrical-mechanical design and our manufacturing engineer, uses a 3D-printed mechanism designed specifically to bend different wires continuously and identify the point of failure as well as compare durability of alternate wires. The stress-tester simulates the life of a wire in the Universal and Atlas drone stations, constantly moving and bending. Each wire must provide the required current and sustain uninterrupted performance to ensure the drone station is always ready when necessary. There are countless wires incessantly operating in the drone stations, if just one wire were to fail the entire system would be ineffective.

The machine is designed to bend, twist, and stress-test wires relentlessly until they fail. This process replicates years of wear and tear in a controlled, accelerated environment, allowing engineers to evaluate how well materials stand up to the challenges of time and use. The resulting data plays a critical role in refining wire selection and ensuring that Hextronics’ systems remain operational under even the most demanding conditions. This rigorous testing protocol underscores Hextronics’ dedication to quality. For industries where dependable connections are crucial—such as drone-in-a-box deployments—every detail counts. By understanding a wire’s breaking point, the engineering team can create systems that maintain reliability even in extreme environments. As Hextronics continues to innovate, the wire testing machine serves as a cornerstone of their commitment to excellence. It ensures that every connection in their systems meets the highest standards of durability, paving the way for technologies that clients can trust.
