Why our SADM ?
Our Solar Array Drive Mechanisms are built
to be the heartbeat of your satellite’s
power system.
By focusing on a compact yet robust design, we minimize the mechanical footprint while maximizing the reliability of energy harvesting throughout the mission’s life.
As constellations evolve toward higher power requirements and longer durations, we are scaling our production to match. We produce our SADMs with the same serial manufacturing precision as our reaction wheels.
