SOLAR PANEL
Substrate Manufacturing
We manufacture substrates entirely in-house, taking care of every step. That includes lay-up, curing, and installing inserts and brackets, so we can guarantee quality from start to finish.
Our substrate manufacturing capabilities:
- Lay-up skins
- Bonded assembly
- Autoclave cure
- Machining
- Integration inserts and brackets
- In-process testing
Photovoltaic Assembly (PVA)
During the PVA process, the solar cells are bonded, welded, and electrically connected to form a fully functional solar power unit.
Our PVA capabilities:
- Sorting and inspection of solar cells
- Interconnecting (Welding)
- Solar cell bonding
- Harnessing (Wiring)
- In-line testing and inspection
Assembly & Testing
Your solar panels will be carefully assembled and undergo verification of their electrical and operational performance. Once tested and approved, they will be ready for installation on your satellite and a step closer to launch.
Our PVA capabilities:
- Assembly hold-down and release mechanisms
- Installation connectors
- Output measurement (EL, PL and Light-IV)
- Deployment testing
