Laboratorio di Qualifica Spaziale

Facility aimed at supporting aerospace companies in the design, manufacturing and testing of nano and micro satellites (up to 70 Kg) and electronic and mechanical components of space, avionic and military systems.

Current qualification capabilities comprises:

  • Physical properties measurements (mass, centre of gravity, momentum of inertia) 
  • Acceleration test
  • Pyro-shock test
  • Combined vibration, humidity, temperature and altitude test
  • Environmental stress screening
  • Thermal shock test
  • Thermal vacuum test

Test facilities and test procedures fully meet the relevant standards for the qualification and acceptance tests (ESA ECSS-E-10-03A, MIL-STD-810-C / F / G and RTCA DO -160D).
