Established in 2011, MicroMultiCopter Aero Technology Co. Ltd. (MMC) has positioned itself as a significant entity in the industrial drone sector. The company was founded by Lu Zhihui. MMC operates on a comprehensive business model that integrates hardware manufacturing, a Software as a Service (SaaS) platform, and service provision, targeting a global clientele. The firm's revenue is generated through the sale of its drone hardware, licensing of its software platforms, and providing tailored drone services to various industries.
MMC's product portfolio is extensive, featuring a range of quadcopters, hexacopters, and vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) fixed-wing drones. A key differentiator is the company's development of a swappable payload system, which includes over 180 different attachments such as thermal cameras, LiDAR scanners, and gas detectors, allowing a single drone to be adapted for multiple applications. This versatility caters to a diverse client base across sectors like public safety, energy infrastructure, construction, and agriculture. For instance, their drones are utilized for tasks ranging from power line inspections and public security surveillance to precision agriculture and emergency response mapping.
The company serves major state-owned enterprises in China, including the State Grid, PetroChina, and Sinopec, and is a supplier to the Ministry of Public Security. Its strategic partnerships with entities like China Unicom, China Telecom, and Huawei underscore its role in integrating drone technology with broader communication and smart city infrastructures. MMC's involvement in standardization bodies, such as being a deputy head unit of the ISO Drone Expert Group, reflects its influence in shaping the regulatory and operational landscape of the unmanned aerial system industry.
