The manufacturing skills of OHB Italia have grown a lot in #40years of space activities and they are now including #capabilities on Satellites, New Space, Ground Telescopes, Electronic Equipment, Mechanisms and Electro Mechanisms, Detectors, Instruments & Payloads.
For the development of a space company it is essential to rely on the availability of modern #CleanRooms and #laboratories: these high-tech facilities give the company production #autonomy, allowing to be more #competitive in the market.
At the moment, as a performing satellite system integrator OHB Italia could rely on:
- A Production facility (360 sqm #ISO8 CR for manufacturing / integration and test)
- An Integration facility (190 sqm #ISO7 devoted to payloads / satellites integration) and a 180 sqm #ISO8 for instrument integration
- #ThermalChambers and #ThermalVacuum test facilities
- #EMC conducted susceptibility / emission pre-compliance test
- #MechanismsLaboratory equipped with a small thermal-vacuum chamber for functional tests, friction and motorization margin characterization in vacuum and/or in temperature
- #MaterialsLaboratory: dedicated to the verification and characterization of material properties when exposed to the Vacuum or Ultra-High Vacuum environment.
- #MetrologyLaboratory: for integration and metrology of contamination-sensitive, high-precision mechanical items.
- #ElectronicsLaboratory: to support electronics equipment development
“Top-Class assets” – stated the President of OHB Italia during his last visit in Milan.
#warehousesystem which daily tracks the components through all manufacturing phases from purchasing to the final product.
Thanks to the investments of the stakeholder, OHB Italia built the Integration facility and totally renewed and expanded the Production facility which now also includes a modern, fully automated
A new important chapter is beginning in OHB Italia evolving story, allowing the company to pursue its expansion #targets and to face #challenges with confidence in the European and national scenario. www.ohb-italia.it
