We are building a blade generator for unmanned aircraft such as drones, integrated with Siemens Designcenter NX. The generator creates blades in various configurations, and from them we design the moulds and manufacture the blades.

From parameters to a blade

  1. Blade parameters and configuration
  2. 3D blade model generated in Siemens Designcenter NX
  3. Mould design based on the generated model
  4. Manufacture of the mould and the composite blades

The generator module

A blade is described by several groups of parameters: dimensions and pitch, hub mounting, aerofoils and thickness distribution, the tip (with an optional winglet) and the finish. A live preview shows the blade outline from above and its thickness from the side, and the finished model goes straight into NX.
