Customizing Snowcat with Nexxis Engineer, Nick Trevean
Watch Nexxis Lead Project Engineer, Nick Treaven, discuss the company’s OEM modular platform, Snowcat. See how this wholly customisable magnetic crawler can be effectively optimised with their in-house design and manufacturing expertise to suit tailored needs. He discusses a particular customer challenge that required modifying the robot so it could pick up objects while scaling the side of a ship’s hull.
This is just one example of how the modular character of Snowcat offers unique solutions for faster, higher quality and more versatile tank inspections. He talks about how this delivers long-term cost reduction and greater efficiencies across a broad range of applications, offering bespoke solutions for high-definition (full 1080p HD) remote visual inspection (RVI).
