Robotic tools for safe, accelerated power line work

Remotely operated robotic tools improve safety, efficiency & sustainability

FulcrumAir platforms empower overhead power line hardware installation to move more quickly, without risk, and at much greater precision. Our remotely operated robotic tools eliminate high-risk work at height, accelerate project execution, and improve environmental impact across transmission and distribution electrical infrastructure.

Launch your next line project with confidence

This streamlined installation, removal and maintenance process offers a 100% reduction in safety risk and is more time- and cost-efficient than current methods.

Megan, SSEN

The drone and robot are safely controlled by the Fulcrum Air pilots, which is the quickest, safest, and most effective method for bird diverter installation at this time.

Kurt R., Ameren Missouri

The main advantage that I look at with robots as opposed to spacer buggies, typical spacer installation, is eliminating safety risks.

Megan, Kiewit

Think you’ll see this all over, I think the buggies will be a thing of the past.

Eric, Kiewit

Drones and robots can do their work without requiring any people to work at height. This opens up maintenance crews to larger time windows.

T&D World

Compared with the traditional way of installing BFDs, this robotic method will be way beyond anything we have done in terms of time and safety.

Stuart , SSEN

Having a spacer robot do the work created the safest and most efficient way of getting the job done. The contractor and VELCO were extremely happy with the FulcrumAir crew and attention to detail.

Scott Massie, VELCO

Safety is a huge aspect of what we do out here, and having technology that can help us out with that is a great resource. The benefits we've seen have just been tremendous.

Joseph Langford, Transmission Line Construction Manager, Alabama Power

The safety aspect of this would definitely outweigh the benefits of utilizing an aircraft. And an aircraft can just stay focused - and that would increase the production rates moving forward.

Brian Pearce, Director of Line Operations, JBI Helicopters

We had some really good feedback from the guys - the fact that it's lightweight, and the fact that they felt like they were safe and out of harm's way.  

Travis Jacklin, Manager Field Services Lines, Yurika

They pre-programmed the GPS locations for the spacers, and they did a bunch of them in much less time than it would take us to even set up a basket. And the safety factor - where our guys aren't up there, and it's all automated and hands-off - is a great step in the right direction. 

Kate Szkolnik, Transmission Line Supervisor, Mississippi Power

I feel more comfortable knowing that myself or someone else is not going to be put at risk. The robot takes the consequence out of it. 

Simon Kaye, Linesman, Yurika

Productivity wise, we have made great strides having our employees work in the next section while the robot stays behind and finishes out the spacers. We can’t speak nothing but good things for it. 

Shane Shaneyfelt, Transmission Line Construction Supervisor, Alabama Power 

The robot's been great. It's quite efficient, and it operates quite well.

Alf Thompson, Rigger, Yurika
