A nonmagnetic, three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) motorized gimbal for rotating a 12U spacecraft around its center, without angular constraints, at up to 10 RPM.
The product does NOT include the containing magnetic cage shown in photo, which must be acquired separately (see SMT02C13 Helmholtz Cage or SMT02C17 Merritt Cage).
SMT02A32 – Standalone Controlled Gimbal, 3DOF, 10RPM, 12U
20.000,00 €
Description
An innovative gimbal to rotate objects up to 60 cm in diameter (e.g. a 27U CubeSat) with 3 DOF in space.
Photo shows Standalone Gimbal embedded with SpaceMotionery Helmholtz Coils (cage is included, coils have to to be acquired separately)
This system can rotate a CubeSat object up to 12U both within a magnetic field (e.g., generated by a SpaceMotionery Helmholtz or Merritt Cage) and in free space, without interfering with the magnetic field, based on user-initiated attitude commands.
It also allows other objects or test equipment to be rotated (e.g., SpaceMotionery’s Star Tracker test equipment).
It must be inserted inside a SpaceMotionery’s Cage (to ba acquired separately), at its shares Cage’s structure.
Characteristics:
• Unlimited rotation angle around any axis
• Allowed CubeSat sizes: 1U, 2U, 3U, 6U short and long, 12U short and long
• Balancing masses provided for strongly unbalanced CuseSats
• Load capacity: up to 25 kg (or more upon request)
Typical applications:
• ADCS Testing on Small Spacecraft
• Rotating Objects in Space
Integration capabilities:
It is fully compatible with SpaceMotionery’s Orbital Geomagnetic Attitude software and other SpaceMotionery test equipment, such as the Star Tracker Test Equipment.
