Integrated Attitude Determination and Control System
The ADCS series represents an extensive range of integrated Attitude Determination and Control Systems (ADCS) for nano and microsatellite missions. Central to our design is a variable-speed, single-gimbal Control Moment Gyroscope (CMG), enhancing the system's torque-to-power ratio. Ranging from models tailored for 3U CubeSats to those optimized for 12U or 16U platforms, each prioritizes lightweight structures, improved power efficiency, and a compact form-factor fitting within a CubeSat structure. Our user-intuitive interfaces, onboard attitude determination, and automated modes ensure streamlined satellite operations. Whether for earth observation or precise maneuvering, the ADCS series provides enhanced agility for mission success. Custom configurations are available upon consultation for specialized needs.
Operation Modes
Basic (without CMG)
- Sun Pointing
- Detumbling
- Safe Mode
Advanced Operation (with CMG)
- Target Tracking
- Fine Pointing
- Local-Vertical-Local-Horizontal
The ADCS includes a suite of versatile operation modes tailored to various satellite mission needs. In our Basic Operation Modes, designed for systems without CMG, we offer Sun Pointing for accurate solar tracking, Detumbling to stabilize the satellite after launch, and Safe Mode to ensure it remains controlled during unforeseen challenges. For those utilizing our Advanced Operation based on our CMG, we offer Tracking mode for specific target monitoring, Fine Pointing to achieve high-precision attitude control, and Local-Vertical-Local-Horizontal mode for optimized Earth-relative positioning. Each mode has been engineered to ensure optimal performance, giving satellite operators agility, flexibility and reliability in every mission phase.
