Composite Materials structures

Satellite Structures




Satellite Structures are developed under different programmes, such as ARTES and GSTP.
 
CFRP sandwich ZIP-edge
 
In GSTP, a novel joining technique has been developed. The technique is very mass efficient and is a promising technology for small satellites primary structure and for closure panels of large satellites.
