See Made in Suzhou again!The first domestic first flight is successful in designing freight drones

Take off at 6:18, land down at 6:45, and fly for 27 minutes in the air ... Today (June 20), I saw that Suzhou reporters learned from the Suzhou Municipal Industry and Information Bureau that the Suzhou Enterprise Yitong UAV System Co., Ltd. The freight drone TP500 has been successful in the first recent flight. The TP500 is a universal large -load unmanned transportation platform. It is also the first fixed -wing unmanned transport aircraft developed in accordance with the requirements of the aircraft.

"The success of the TP500's first flight is an important milestone for the development of the unmanned airfresh freight industry in my country. It has established confidence for my country's vigorous development of the navigation industry and determining the inhumanity of the navigation industry. At the same time Provided support. "Wu Yongcheng, deputy general manager of Yitong UAV System Co., Ltd. said.

Load half -ton maximum voyage 1800km

The first domestic self -designed unmanned freight machine is the first flight successful

Take off at 6:18, landed at 6:45, flying for 27 minutes in the air, and the flight was stable ... On June 18, the TP500 completed the first flight in Jingmen, Hubei.

It is understood that the aircraft can meet the demand for unmanned air freight scenarios with a 500kg standard load and a 500km radius range. The maximum range is 1800km. It is a universal large -load overpowered transportation platform. The fixed wing unmanned transport aircraft developed.

"It is a completely positive transport drone, which has good cost competitiveness, and has a mature power system, extra core airborne system, has ADS-B IN/OUT function. With the monitoring of multi -way links, there are day and night operation capabilities. "Wu Yongcheng told a reporter from Suzhou, more importantly, this freight drone has special features in terms of business models and model design.

(Positive design: Guided by system engineering theory, methods, and process models, and the improvement of complex products and systems, technical research and development, and original design as the scene, it aims to enhance the company's independent innovation capabilities and design and manufacture capabilities. Cure

Wu Yongcheng told a reporter from Suzhou that the design and manufacturing of the TP500 has taken a road of collaboration and integration suitable for my country's national conditions. It uses the central enterprise national team to undertake the overall design, private enterprises and central enterprises mixed -reform enterprises to manufacture the main body. At the same time, the development of model development is the opportunity to absorb and integrate advanced foreign -foreign manufacturing technology, and lay out the development of supporting industrialization.

In design, it reflects the adaptability of pursuing market cost competitiveness and application scenarios. The mature piston power device and the overall domestic compound material structure adopted by the TP500 are all conducive to weight loss and cost. The straight body section can also ensure the larger cargo cabin space (3.3 cubic meters), which has a lightweight cargo disk, and has good applicability. The TP500 was transported, and the cost of tons kilometers was less than 5 yuan.

"Special" cargo compartment door design

Finding a new path for the unmanned direction of the navigation industry

See Suzhou reporters learned that the project was established in August 2020.

"We also participated in the Zhuhai Air Show in September 2021. At that time, we received unanimous recognition and achieved some expected results." Wu Yongcheng said.

However, because this is the first large -scale drone specifically designed for freight, there are many technical difficulties that need to be overcome.

The overall layout of the TP500 machine is a very distinctive point, that is, the design of the rear fuselage folding and the tail door of the machine. This type of warehouse opening design, similar to the 747LCF transport aircraft used to transport most sections, saves a separate warehouse door, and is more convenient for the loading and unloading of large -piece goods.

"There are many difficulties in ensuring structural strength and lightweight requirements in the back cabin." Wu Yongcheng said that at the same time, in order to ensure safety, reliable and stable operation, the unnecessary core airborne system adopted by the machine requires a lot of need for a lot of core airborne systems. Debugging and development; the reliability of the data link also needs to adopt excess and various types of data links to ensure data exchange during the operation of the aircraft.

As we all know, my country has the world's largest express market, and the infrastructure of the aviation industry is also rapidly strengthening."The current pain point is that there are no suitable aircraft to support the development of unmanned air freight." Wu Yongcheng said, "So, many companies are actively developing or preparing to enter this industry.Transportation, the fundamental application scenario of civil aircraft is transportation.It is a reasonable path to explore other application scenarios from the cargo with huge demand and explore other application scenarios."It has created a new idea suitable for a large transportation system that is suitable for China's national conditions."

It's amazing, Made in Suzhou.The heavy weapon of the country is the bottom of the country. Behind domestic aircraft frequently ushered in the highlights, it is the blue width of the generation of generations. It is the continuous breakthrough of core technology.
