Where We're Heading
FulcrumAir sees a future where many of the tasks performed in a high wire environment will be done with robotic tools. We partner with major component manufacturers to develop robot installation methods for some of the most commonly used fittings in the industry. Development is underway and new robotic tools will be introduced in the second half of 2022. Additional robotic tools are in the early planning stages – these tools will have applicability for maintenance of the existing network and for new builds.
Important to the solution is the ability to place the robotic tools where they are needed. This is accomplished through FulcrumAir’s proprietary swing stabilization technology, allowing us to operate in high winds with precision placement and control.
All the design and engineering work is done in Calgary, Canada by our engineers. To date, we have invested over 25,000 hours into research, design, engineering, testing and evaluation. This work is continuing at an accelerated pace.
Reduce Cost
Our robots dramatically reduce the need for manned aircraft, including helicopters. Not only does this increase safety, but it also significantly reduces the overall cost of operations.
Reach Anywhere
High wire environments present a number of safety risks to linemen, but there are also some sections that have previously been inaccessible. Our robots bring everything within reach.
Improve Quality
We’re committed to high-quality engineering. Our robots are the crowning jewels of Fulcrum’s capabilities, engineered for ensuring safety and precision in the powerline industry.
Maintain Safety
Our robots and UASs are unmanned and remotely controlled, making them much safer than manned helicopters. Keep your linemen out of harm’s way and reduce risks and liability.
Get Things Done
Faster With a
Heavy Lift Drone
Forestry
The forestry industry requires a rugged and robust solution for carrying out tasks that require heavy lifting. With a high load capacity and all-day longevity, the E7500 is the perfect tool for jobs such as tree seedling delivery, equipment delivery, and firefighting. Our heavy lift drone effectively replaces helicopters for these roles and gets the job done faster and more safely.
- Firefighting
- Tree Seedling Delivery
- Equipment Delivery
Power Transmission
Bird flight diverter installation is an essential job in the power transmission industry. At FulcrumAir, we specialize in the fields of commercial drone services and aerial robotics. Having developed the LineFly, an automated robot for installing bird flight diverters, we needed a machine robust enough to lift the device. Our E7500 series drone is the best fit for the job, dropping off and picking up the LineFly with ease. The E7500 can also deliver other tools and equipment when needed.

Facilities & Infrastructure
Lifting tools and other equipment to power lines, communication towers, wind turbines, construction scaffolding and other facilities is a breeze for the E7500. Remote heavy lifting can increase the productivity and safety of any work site. Heavy duty drones are the best replacement for helicopters when it comes to shorter hauls and light cargo work.
- Equipment Delivery
- Tool Delivery
- Off-Shore Delivery
Disaster Relief
Drones are ideal for making deliveries to isolated regions, especially those that have been affected by a natural disaster and are not safe to access by foot. The E7500’s large payload capacity and durability make it an ideal solution for delivering supplies remotely to affected areas.
