“What can our drone do?”

Our solution is as ingenious as it is straightforward – Let’s show you what it is capable of.

Forceful work and steady performance.

By attaching directly to the asset, we decouple flight from interaction. This enables precise, high-force tasks with up to 500 N of force and no flight disturbance.

1 mm precision on a 40x40cm tool table.

Our tool gantry compensates for drone drift and expands task coverage from single points to larger surfaces.

One platform, endless tools.

Our modular payload system handles most handheld tools up to 5 kg, from drills to sensors, ready for any infrastructure job.

Tethered for nonstop missions.

With constant power from a tether, AITHON operates energy-hungry tools continuously: no battery swaps, no downtime.

AITHON is an access solution for the built environment like no other. We’re always working on new applications, get in touch if you have something you can’t find below.
