Still done by hand.
Manual rod knocking
Worker strikes a live line from below — 25+ min per 100 m.
Bucket trucks and climbing
25+ min
Crews at height in freezing conditions — requires power shutdown.
Power Outage
Thermal de-icing
Melts ice with high current — needs multi-million-dollar hardware.
Wait and repair
Emergency crews after failure — days of outage.

Days
Manual Ground Operation
Where vehicles can reach, crews clear the ice by hand — slow, inefficient and costly.

Helicopter De-Icing
Where ground crews can't reach, ice is cleared by helicopter — dangerous and expensive.
The Lineer Robotics de-icing system
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
A self-flying robot that lands directly on live power lines, breaks ice in minutes and sends back rich line data every mission.
KEY FEATURES
• Autonomous flight & aı-supported landıng-take off
• Computer vision for safe operation
• emı protectıon for live-lıne operatıons
• Encrypted data mission logging
• Controlled from up to 10 km away — no crew needs to go out into the field
• Clears one mile of power line from ice in 30 minutes.
ADVANTAGES
• 5x faster than CURRENT METHODS
• 0 outages required
• 80% lower cost than manual methods
• All-weather storm deployment
• clears ice from power lines in areas ground crews cannot reach
FOR UTILITIES
Lineer Robotics turns emergency ice events into a planned, data-driven service. utilities get faster restoration and a new layer of line data for reliability.

17 INCH
• 17.5 lbs (8 kg) — 55% Mass Optimization
• 17" x 17" x 17" — Ultra-compact body, minimal design
• A autonomous- AI backed flying robot that requires no carrier drone and flies on its own
• 25 minutes of uninterrupted operation on a full battery, meaning a one-mile line can now be cleared on its own, with no need for an external carrier.
AI-VISION
AI-powered autonomous line detection and safe landing mechanism.
EMI-PROTECT
Electromagnetic shielding that enables safe operation on high-voltage lines.
MINI-DRIVE
Patented low-friction drive system that travels along the line with minimal energy consumption.
Building Tomorrow's Energy Robots on Real Field Experience.
Our flagship product today, the mini ice-breaking flying robot system, reached this level thanks to years of fieldwork and the operational experience we gained in the utility sector. As you can see in the videos below, we have worked on a range of interesting projects with utilities in the past.
