About IDAS
IDAS GmbH - Intelligent Drone Application Systems, based in Achern (Baden-Württemberg), develops and produces industrial drones and applicator systems. The goal is the automated execution of painting, cleaning and monitoring routines for infrastructures, without contact flight or with contact flight. The portfolio comprises four drone platforms (ALPHA, BETA, GAMMA, DELTA) with payloads of 12 to 100 kg MTOW as well as modular application packages for visualization, inspection, cleaning, repair and painting. Core innovations are the company's own contact flight technology, which enables physical wall contact without GPS dependency, as well as sensor fusion with 3D scanning and thermography. Rotary brush, high-pressure cleaning, spray and transport modules can be combined on one platform, allowing multi-stage workflows with a single drone. The company also offers sales and leasing, training and compliance certification, maintenance, 24/7 support, flight permits for restricted environments and data management. Customers are found in the energy, construction, infrastructure, photovoltaics and building cleaning sectors; cooperations exist with Service-Pro Swiss, Vaionic Technologies and the ZIM cooperation network digitalPV.
