Project description
Advanced technological transformations in the space industry
Spacecraft manufacturers manage to transform many engineering process elements rapidly and effectively thanks to the support of the digitalisation & Space 4.0 programme. One of the main targets is to improve the Integration Verification and Validation (IVV) process that requires cost reduction and duration optimisation. Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) are essential tools at all levels of pre-launching testing of satellite/spacecraft, namely the Assembly, Integration Test, and/or Verification activities (AIT/AIV). However, costs, duration, and monitoring represent challenges for the EGSEs. The EU-funded NG-EGSE project aims to introduce an innovative modular EGSE architecture (NG-EGSE) with game-changing, low-cost EGSEs solutions and to improve the duration of the AIT/AIV operations in the space sector.
