Problem
Satellite development traditionally relies on low‑volume, hand‑crafted assembly lines, leading to long lead times, high costs, and limited scalability for customers who need reliable, repeatable production of multiple units.
Solution
Space Industries operates a dedicated, fully integrated manufacturing plant that applies automotive‑inspired serial production methods to satellites up to 700 kg. The facility houses over 2,500 sqm of ISO 8 modular clean rooms, each configured as a private “satellite stable” to protect customer confidentiality while offering flexible workflow layouts. By consolidating assembly, integration, and testing under one roof, the company eliminates transport risks and reduces overall lead time to as little as 100 days per unit. The production line is designed to run up to 40 satellites in parallel, enabling an average output of one satellite per working day by 2030, and allowing OEMs to concentrate on payload innovation rather than manufacturing logistics.
Target Audience
Primary customers are satellite OEMs, payload developers, and aerospace firms that require medium‑to‑large‑volume, high‑reliability satellite production for commercial, defense, or telecommunications missions.
