revolutionizing Inspections: The Xer X8 adn Phase One Partnership
The collaboration between Xer Technologies and Phase One has lead to the seamless integration of the Phase One P3 payload with the Xer X8 unmanned aerial system (UAS).
This innovative combination empowers inspection firms, drone service providers, and asset managers to capture high-resolution imagery during extended autonomous flights, significantly minimizing both the time and costs associated with inspections.
Enhanced Efficiency and Productivity
Designed and manufactured in Switzerland, the X8 UAS, paired with the Phase One P3 payload, offers extended flight durations, reduced need for pilot repositioning, fully automated operations, and fewer images captured. This results in improved productivity and superior visual data to support inspection objectives.
The X8 UAS stands out as a transformative platform that facilitates cost-effective, high-performance Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) inspections of various infrastructure assets, such as power lines, pipelines, railroads, and remote industrial facilities.

Unmatched Capabilities for Asset Inspection
when utilized with the X8, the Phase One P3 payload delivers ultra-high-resolution images of assets at designated geo-specific waypoints. The robust X8 platform can be deployed in mere minutes and is capable of conducting missions with the Phase One P3 for over 2.5 hours, significantly enhancing project efficiency and return on investment (ROI). The Xer X8 UAS is designed with high safety standards and redundancy features to ensure mission success.
“The Phase One camera brings essential advantages to UAS inspection missions,” stated Gökmen Çetin, International Sales Manager at Xer Technologies. “With the combined quality and performance of the Phase One and X8 systems, inspection companies can now gather high-quality data in a fraction of the time previously required.”
“Integrating the P3 with the Xer X8 marks a significant milestone, as it extends flight time, thereby boosting productivity and scalability for comprehensive grid inspections without sacrificing data quality. With the Xer X8, our clients can advance towards more sustainable and cost-efficient utility inspections,” remarked Michael messerschmidt, Phase One Portfolio Director – Unmanned.
