Case Study: Asylon achieves continuous autonomous drone surveillance with Xometry

Asylon’s Autonomous Drones Secure the Skies with Help from Xometry

Asylon is an aerial infrastructure company that builds autonomous drone systems (DroneCore and DroneHome) to provide real-time video and analytics across industries. Facing the high cost and delay of human-powered surveillance and the need for weatherproof, repeatable hardware for autonomous battery swaps, Asylon turned to Xometry for sheet metal fabrication and on-demand manufacturing to produce the outer shell and electronics housing for its tactical drone base station.

Xometry manufactured precise, anodized sheet metal parts for DroneHome that protect internal hardware, enable the robotic battery-transfer arm to operate reliably within tight tolerances, and support continuous autonomous operation. The Xometry-produced shells helped Asylon scale quickly with fast turnarounds, reduced burn rate, and consistent part quality—enabling customers to get up to 50 minutes of real‑time video and data for every hour of usage while meeting delivery deadlines.
