ISO 21384 UAS Certification & Compliance Testing

ISO 21384 UAS Certification & Compliance Testing

ISO 21384 UAS Certification & Compliance Testing

The ISO 21384 certification is a critical standard ensuring unmanned aerial systems (UAS) meet the highest safety and performance standards. This certification plays an essential role in the aerospace and aviation sector, particularly for companies involved in the design, manufacturing, and commercialization of drones and other UASs.

ISO 21384 covers a wide array of testing requirements aimed at ensuring that UAS are safe to operate. This includes structural integrity tests, electrical system checks, flight performance evaluations, and environmental stress tests. The standard is designed to be applicable across all types of UAS, from small consumer drones to large commercial and industrial systems.

Our comprehensive testing services for ISO 21384 certification involve a series of rigorous procedures that cover every aspect of the UAS's design and functionality. We use state-of-the-art equipment and follow strict protocols to ensure compliance with international standards. Our team of experts ensures that each test is conducted in a manner that reflects real-world conditions, providing accurate and reliable results.

Our laboratory adheres strictly to ISO 21384 guidelines, offering services for various stages of the UAS lifecycle, including:

  • Design Validation: Ensuring that the initial design meets all safety and performance criteria before manufacturing begins.
  • Type Certification: Confirming that a specific model of UAS complies with ISO 21384 standards.
  • Production Inspection: Verifying that each manufactured unit adheres to the same high standards as its predecessors.

The testing process involves multiple phases, each designed to assess different aspects of the UAS. We use a variety of instruments and techniques to ensure thorough evaluation:

  • Structural Integrity Tests: These tests evaluate the durability and strength of the UAS's frame under various conditions.
  • Electrical System Checks: Ensuring that all electrical components operate within safe parameters and are free from faults.
  • Flight Performance Evaluations: Assessing how the UAS performs in different environments, including wind resistance, altitude changes, and varying temperatures.
  • Environmental Stress Tests: Simulating conditions such as extreme weather to ensure the UAS can withstand real-world challenges.

The detailed reports we provide at every stage of testing are invaluable for quality managers, compliance officers, R&D engineers, and procurement teams. These reports not only document the results of each test but also offer insights into how improvements can be made to future models.
