Designing a motion system for space is fundamentally different from terrestrial engineering. Components must be engineered to withstand radiation, extreme thermal gradients and outgassing in the absence of atmospheric pressure and convective cooling. This paper outlines a proven recipe for designing space-rated motors, taking you from the initial stages of defining torque and thermal requirements to in- and on-orbit deployments.
Learn how to accelerate time to space and ensure mission success by engineering robust, reliable motion systems truly tailored for the rigors of space.
