East Aurora, NY (July 25, 2023) – Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B) will be exhibiting a new spacecraft mechanism at the Small Satellite Conference (SmallSat) in Logan, UT August 7-10. The new small satellite solar array drive assembly (SADA) is designed to meet the needs of the rapidly growing small satellite market.
The small SADA is a compact power solution for positioning solar array panels. It is comprised of modular components, allowing modifications to meet mission specific requirements. Moog leveraged new design and manufacturing processes to enable a more compact product with reduced lead times.
“Throughout the more than half a century we have been designing mechanisms, Moog has proven that innovation is at the core of our the most successful products. The new small SADA features improved rotation capabilities and position telemetry. We believe the robustness and versatility of this customizable solar array drive assembly will serve a wide array of missions, whether it is needed for LEO, MEO, GEO or other orbits, or for exploration and lunar endeavors,” said Armond Asadurian, Senior Staff Engineer.
The small SADA will be on display at SmallSat in Moog Booth 56 in the Taggart Student Center at Utah State University August 7-10. It will join other Moog spacecraft technologies including space vehicles, radiation-hardened avionics, shock and vibration suppression, and launch infrastructure.
