The Ukrainian design bureau LOCKER has unveiled the MZAK1 mobile workshop, tailored for charging drone batteries. According to the bureau's announcement, this workshop is built on a standard 20-foot container and is capable of charging batteries in field conditions.
The container measures 6 meters in length, 2.6 meters in width, and 2.59 meters in height, weighing approximately 5 tons.
Inside, there are charging cabinets for batteries with a capacity of 66,000 mAh, which are used in drones like "Vampire" and "Baba Yaga".
Additionally, a three-phase generator with a power output of 50 kW is installed, providing voltage options of 230 or 400 volts. To support the generator's operation, there are 12 fuel canisters, each holding 20 liters, resulting in a standard fuel supply of 240 liters. This setup allows for the simultaneous charging of up to 84 batteries.
An external 380-volt outlet is also available, allowing for power supply from an external source if the workshop is located at a permanent deployment point (PDP).
The system supports battery charging from 2S to 6S configurations.
The workshop is equipped with a table, a tool storage area, two internal 220-volt outlets, a first aid kit, air conditioning, and a sleeping area.
Notably, this workshop was developed from scratch in just two months.
Previously, it was reported that a modular factory was established in the Czech Republic for the production of UAVs in combat zones, also constructed from shipping containers and capable of 3D printing drones.
