Maersk takes the biscuit with world’s first vessel delivery by drone
Maersk Tankers has completed a landmark delivery to one of its vessels using a drone. Denmark is famous for its cookies – and the lucky crew of the Maersk Edgar received a tin of biscuits by air in this groundbreaking trial. The test drone, LE 4-8X Dual Atex, is from French company Xamen and is ATEX zone 2 approved for use in potentially explosive environments. It is an octocopter drone with a wingspan of 104 cm and 40 cm height and 16 m per second maximum speed. “Drones could cut time and costs for deliveries and inspections across the Maersk Group – but they must be reliable and absolutely safe,” the company said in a release. “There are high costs for onboard delivery of small parcels, filled with urgent spare parts or mail, because of the need for a barge,” said Markus Kuhn, supply chain manager at Maersk Tankers. http://splash247.com/maersk-takes-the-biscuit-with-worlds-first-vessel-delivery-by-drone/
