After 1.5 years of intensive development and testing we formally came to conclusion of the Artes 5.2 project ITAR free extended temperature sunsensor today by performing a final presentation. Based on inputs gathered from several potential suppliers over the years, the project started as a company internal project some 3 years ago. The main problem these sensors are [...]
Everybody knows the Monopoly card “a failure of the bank to your advantage, you receive…..” An error that occurred during the vibration testing of our BiSon74-ET-RH sensors feels a bit like that. Although the sensors were programmed to be tested to very significant levels (1g^2/Hz totalling 38.9g) it has now been confirmed that there was [...]
Today we finished pyroshock testing at the ISISpace THOR facility. THOR stands for Testing Hammer for extraOrdinary Rough environments. These tests were performed in frame of an ARTES 5.2 program called ITAR free extended temperature sunsensor. 3 BiSon74ET-RH sensors with two different builds were tested. These sensors went through thermal cycling and vibration testing before. In frame of [...]
