ECAPS

Yet another impressive feat accomplished by our friends at Astroscale, approaching to within 15 meters of an uncooperative piece of space debris. We are proud to have supplied our 1N HPGP thrusters and green propellant LMP-103S to the mission, as well as supporting the launch site operations with spacecraft fueling. #GreenPropulsion #ECAPS #HPGP #Rockets #Thrusters #ShowtheWayADRASJ

Space supply chain brief 3 New satellite thrusters from ECAPS on the market in 2025 --- Supplier: ECAPS Supply chain update: ECAPS is bringing 4 new thruster products to market in 2025: 100 mN thruster, 5 N thruster, 22 N thruster, and bolt-on propulsion module “Orbital Force” to market in 2025. Here's a bit more information about each system: 🛰️ 100 mN thruster - the 100 mN thruster is in the sweet spot for 12-16U CubeSats with its high thrust-to-volume ratio – enabling high-performance, low-power propulsion making it competitive even with electric (high Isp) propulsion. 🛰️ 5 N thruster - the 5 N thruster enables high thrust delta-V maneuvers and apogee, reaction control, and proximity operations maneuvering for small-medium spacecraft. 🛰️ 22 N thruster - the 22 N thruster enables high thrust delta-V maneuvers and apogee, reaction control, and proximity operations maneuvering for medium-large spacecraft as well as kick stages and orbital tugs. 🛰️ Orbital Force - the Orbital Force “bolt-on” propulsion system is a versatile propulsion system, utilizing ECAPS' flight-proven 1 N thruster, capable of: > Constellation deployment and formation flights > Drag compensation and orbit maintenance > Orbital maneuvering and fine adjustments > Positioning of payloads and equipment > De-orbiting at the end of the mission As Wilhelm Dingertz, Product Development and Commercialization Manager at ECAPS, explains: "The propulsion system design is versatile, capable of integration with multiple present and future small satellite platforms and launchers on the market. The system is fueled with ECAPS’ flight-proven monopropellant LMP-103S which provides significantly increased performance and reduced hazards compared to monopropellant hydrazine." "This results in reduced handling costs and at least a 30% increase in delivered density impulse. Orbital Force can be loaded with LMP-103S and pressurized more than 10 years prior to launch without degradation, making it the ideal solution for responsive space capabilities." --- Find out more about ECAPS here on their satsearch portfolio: https://lnkd.in/eDRWn-Ph.

ECAPS has successfully completed a critical hot firing test campaign of its LMP-103S derivative propellant, marking a significant step in expanding applications for bipropellant thrusters and gas generators. With the integration of fast start-up technology, this milestone moves ECAPS beyond monopropellant systems, opening new opportunities for advanced space and defense missions. Read more about this achievement and how our team is driving innovation in green propulsion.

ECAPS is yet again proud to have supplied our 1 N #HPGP Thrusters to Astroscale (via Nammo UK who manufactured the propulsion system) - enabling #ADRAS-J to perform the complex maneuvers required for the mission. The thrusters are powered by our #Green propellant LMP-103S, providing decreased environmental hazards and pollutants, reduced operational hazards, shorter spacecraft processing times and increased propellant performance as compared to traditional monopropellants. #Thrusters #Rockets #GreenPropulsion

We are pleased to announce that Stefan Gustafsson has been appointed as the new Chairman of the Board at ECAPS. Stefan brings a distinguished background in space and defense. Most recently, he served as Senior Vice President at the Swedish Space Corporation, where he led Corporate Strategy and Strategic Security across global markets. His career includes significant contributions to defense and security within the Swedish Armed Forces. Read the full announcement here: https://lnkd.in/gTu6gXQn
