Product Overview
The PX-260 Small AUV is a professional Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) designed for deeper-water marine survey, underwater inspection, and oceanographic research applications.
Featuring an optimized electronic control architecture, advanced navigation system, and enhanced payload capacity, PX-260 provides a powerful underwater platform for large-area marine data collection and complex underwater operations.
With a maximum operating depth of 500 meters, PX-260 is suitable for scientific research, offshore engineering inspection, marine environment monitoring, and underwater mapping applications.
Product Advantages
01 Strong Mobility
High-efficiency integrated propeller-motor propulsion system delivers excellent underwater maneuverability, with a maximum speed of 15 knots (standard 6 knots). Optional single/dual horizontal and vertical thrusters support vertical diving, ascending, and dynamic positioning for flexible underwater operations.
02 High Intelligence
Advanced onboard data processing capabilities combined with SLAM technology and data-driven algorithms enable efficient underwater navigation, environmental perception, and real-time data analysis.
03 Diversified Payload
With up to 20 kg payload capacity, the AUV supports a wide range of underwater equipment, including side-scan sonar, forward-looking sonar, multibeam sonar, hydrophones, and other marine sensors for diverse survey and research applications.
