Technologies & Spacecraft Mechanisms

Spacecraft Mechanisms is a broad term used to generally describe moving mechanical and electromechanical assemblies commonly found on space vehicles.  Examples are solar array drives, antenna gimbals, reaction wheels, and so on.

Over the past 20 years, as we’ve developed robotic technologies for applications in Low Earth Orbit, on Mars and beyond, our engineering team has acquired the specialized skill set necessary for developing the next generation of more common spacecraft mechanisms as well.  We are developing spacecraft mechanisms for:

• Deployment & Positioning
• Attitude Determination & Control
• Intra-Vehicular Activity (IVA) & Extra-Vehicular Activity (EVA)
• Rotary Signal & Power Transfer
