AQMAAR offers specialized Zero-Gravity Simulation testing for deployable satellite structures, particularly solar arrays. This service validates the mechanical deployment logic and latching mechanisms in a simulated weightless environment to prevent failure in orbit.
Key Capabilities:
- Zero-Gravity Simulation: Utilization of a large-scale off-loading rig (7m x 4m x 5.5m) to negate gravity effects during deployment.
- Mechanism Verification: Qualification of Hold-Down and Release Mechanisms (HDRM) and hinges under realistic mechanical loads.
- Motion Analysis: High-speed monitoring of deployment kinematics to verify speed, damping, and latching shock.
- Large Capacity: Capable of handling large panels with single-point hanging loads up to 10kg.
Facility Specs (EgSA Stand):
- Overall Dimensions: 7000 mm × 4000 mm × 5500 mm (L × W × H)
- Maximum Load (Single-Point Hanging): 10 kg
- Slideway Linearity: ≤ 1 mm
- Parallelism Between Long Slideways: ≤ 1 mm/m
- Levelness of Slideway: ≤ 0.04 mm/m
Other service options:
-
Sine-on-Random: Combined testing for complex environments.
-
Pyro-Shock Simulation: High-frequency transient shock testing to simulate stage separation.
