DEFENCE SYSTEMS

PRECISION SYSTEMS FOR DEMANDING DEFENCE APPLICATIONS.

From motion assemblies and thermal systems to full mission integration, we engineer defence hardware for reliability, service life and modular evolution.

APPROACH

MOTION, OPTICS AND STRUCTURE DESIGNED TOGETHER.

Pointing performance is a property of the whole assembly, bearings, stiffness, thermal path, control loop and payload mass are resolved as one problem.

03ENGINEERING PROCESS

From requirement to qualified hardware.

01
Requirements

Operational envelope, interfaces and constraints captured with the customer.

02
Concept & Trade

Topology, materials and control strategy compared against the envelope.

03
Detailed Design

Mechanical, electrical and firmware design carried in parallel.

04
Prototype

Machined and assembled in-house for fast iteration.

05
Test & Validate

Bench, environmental and integration testing with recorded evidence.

06
Transition

Documentation, spares and support for deployment.
