Cubespace's Wide Network and Capabilities Makes It a Global ADCS Partner

Cubespace is a company that purely focus on innovative satellite control systems. With 9+ years of industry expertise and 240+ satellites in orbit and 2200+ deliveries, Cubespace aims to make systems so user-friendly, so robust, so affordable, and so scalable, that it makes a global impact on the industry and changes the way satellites are built. 

They provide systems that enable entry level university students to accurately control their first CubeSats; innovative start-ups to build their constellations and ultimately make their business plans work; and experienced scientists to do cutting-edge research and make the discoveries of tomorrow.

Flight Heritage meets Innovation: Cubespace ADCS

Satellite ADCS used to be difficult, but they simplified it. They mixed many years of in-orbit experience together with innovative design to create a revolutionary new ADCS product.

Integrated, Turn-Key ADCS

The ADCS of a satellite is a system on its own. It requires exact timings and synchronisation, fault detection, isolation and recovery (FDIR) mechanisms, power monitoring and switching, logging and telemetry handling, configuration and calibration of sensors, and complex mathematical models and algorithms.

CUBEADCS

CubeADCS is a complete turn-key nanosatellite attitude determination and control solution for users aiming to rapidly develop satellites using flight-proven components. These systems combine robust, radiation-tolerant flight computer, flight-proven ADCS algorithms and FDIR mechanisms.

Sensors

In space, either the earth, the sun, or the stars are used to determine the orientation of a spacecraft. Which of these are used for a particular mission depend on the ADCS requirements for the satellite to function correctly.

CUBESENSE

A CMOS-based Sun sensor with a wide field of view, low power usage and high accuracy. CubeSense is a highly compact, single sensor head with integrated electronics.

CUBESTAR

Low power consumption is achieved by limiting the update rate to 1 Hz, using a wide field-of-view lens, and designing power efficient electronics. CubeStar outputs inertially-referenced attitude quaternions or matched star vector pairs.

Actuators

Different applications and payloads are best suited for different sizes CubeSats. There is no one size fits all, and regardless of the satellite size you choose, the actuators you choose must be sized correctly to ensure the performance needed within your volume, mass and power constraints. They provide a wide range of reaction wheels and torquers, all built for robustness and performance, but maintaining a strong focus on minimizing power, mass and volume.

CUBEWHEEL

CubeWheel is a satellite reaction wheel that comes in small, small+, medium and large sizes. It allows you to control the attitude of your satellite.

There are 4 types of CubeWheels- Small, Small+, Medium and Large.

CUBETORQUER

The simplest method of changing the attitude of nanosatellites in LEO.

There are 4 types of CubeTorquers- Small, Medium, Large and Coil.
