Clyde Space Solar Panels

The aac clyde space photon solar panels are designed and qualified for maximum power generation and ease of platform integration.

Clyde space solar panels.

The side solar panels are designed to fit at the side plates of our cubesat structures. All photon solar panels are constructed from aluminum coupled with pcb inserts and proprietary hold down release mechanisms leveraging decades of in orbit heritage. The us firm on behalf of lockheed martin is developing a small launch orbital manoeuvring vehicle sl omv in reading berkshire. For missions requiring perfomance longevity and that bit more space in the trunk our epic 6u class is just the job.

Aac clyde space will develop the new solar panel to power the vehicle under a contract worth 340 000 awarded by us based moog. With up to 8u of available payload volume or 12u of payload on our 16u option and the ability to accomodate large arrays of deployable solar panels this class of cubesat offers increased performance whilst still boasting the same proven avionics core. Aac clyde space to develop solar panels for orbital manoeuvring vehicle 4 june 2020 aac clyde space aac clyde space has been selected to develop a new solar panel for moog s new small launch orbital manoeuvring vehicle sl omv a space tug designed to deploy cubesat constellations and guide small satellites to their final orbit. The big dog of our cubesat range is the epic 12u.

Clyde space solar panel glasgow company aac clyde space has been chosen to develop a solar panel for moog s sl omv or small launch orbital manoeuvring vehicle. Aac clyde space provides rapidly manufactured spacecraft services and solutions designed with quality and innovation in mind for the small satellite market. Find out more about space as a service and browse through our satellite bits and epic spacecraft via our online store today. Boasting large deployable solar arrays and enhanced pointing not to mention our flight proven avionics core our epic 6u class is the ideal choice for both commercial and government missions.

The purpose of these panels is to provide maximum power generation from any side of the satellite. The sl omv is designed to carry satellites which do not have their own propulsion system to their desired orbits a capability which will be needed for the deployment of constellations.
