• With a platform, the configuration of each subsystem and their relative positioning has been thought through to maximize mission performance and reduce possible interference and clashes – errors at such an early design stage can result in costly troubleshooting and repairs later on. Our platform solutions have proven themselves in orbit.
• You may need customization specific to your mission (solar panels cut-outs, payload interfaces, specific spacecraft pointing modes, etc.) which we can implement for you based on our heritage, experience and internal tools and facilities.
• A platform comes with the assurance that all electrical, mechanical and software interfaces are verified during the platform Assembly, Integration and Verification phases by our experts and dedicated quality engineers.

A platform is the testbed of your payload and mission development. As such, we supply CubeSat platforms with a complete software development kit including the flight-proven subsystems libraries that we also use on our missions. Such a kit allows you to considerably accelerate the development of your flight software with high-level functionalities available for each subsystem.

We can provide dedicated support along with your payload development, but also specific training for your team to get started with the use of the platform and its equipment.

Our standard platforms are suitable to meet the requirements of the majority of our customer missions and provide a robust balance between power generation, and power and thermal management. Nevertheless, we are aware of the unique requirements some mission can bring with them and therefore we have designed our platforms with a modular, generic architecture, that allows us to easily tailor our platforms to meet your mission requirements. Contact us for higher power needs based on our scalable architecture.

All our platforms have a design lifetime of up to 3 years, which is based on parameters that are known to affect the lifetime of a satellite, like the design and usage of the satellite (e.g. duty cycle, max. power usage), orbit altitude an inclination (radiation, orbital decay, thermal cycles), launch environment. We can upgrade our platform to a design lifetime of up to 5 years if required. Note that design lifetime is not the same as the actual or operational lifetime, with the difference that the latter is also affected by random phenomena on which we do not have control like space debris collision, high-energy radiation impact, variation in the atmosphere density (for very low orbits).

• We provide discounts for educational CubeSat projects at schools and universities that do not receive any government funding. Certain conditions may apply to qualify for such a discount.
• For large volume orders, we have volume discounts available for the purchasing of larger numbers of identical units.
• For the long term, regular purchases, we offer special discounted prices under a framework agreement.

Most of ISISPACE subsystems follows the original CubeSat standard with the use of the broadly used PC104 form factor and electrical interfaces are usually handled through the 104-pin CSKB connector and its full and light version. Note that compatibility with the envisaged other, third-party systems should be carefully looked at.

None of the ISISpace CubeSat products is falling under ITAR export regulations, but we may be requested to produce an export license on a case-by-case basis.

A standard 1-year warranty is included by default.

Each product is packaged in ESD protective bags and packed into rugged boxes with foam to dampen mechanical shocks during its transportation from ISISPACE to your premises.

The ISISPACE Antenna System frequency range is between 100MHz and 500MHz.

It is not possible to mount the ISISPACE Antenna System on the side. The system can be mounted on the top, bottom to in between stacks of the CubeSat.

The ground station lead time is typically 6 months.

Yes, we can send one of our team members to evaluate the site.

The ground station lead time is typically 6 months.

The deployment velocity depends on the satellite mass and the spring. Deployment speeds can range from 0.8m/s to 1.8m/s.

Yes, we can support you with the integration of your satellite to the deployer at our facility in Delft and other locations. Please discuss with your sales representative.

We offer a standard daughterboard and custom daughterboard which can be used to interface payloads and other sub-systems to the OBC.

Yes, please select this option when ordering.

No.

Yes, our solar panels allow some cut-outs to accommodate payloads and sensors. Please speak with our sales representative for more details.

Over the years, we have developed a very comprehensive capacity building program to train teams on CubeSat design, integration and operations. In this program, we provide our customers theoretical knowledge of the main of components of a mission, but also practical hands-on experience on a satellite, both during AIV and operations. The program is developed such that when fully completed, it provides a solid foundation of a sustainable space capacity based on small spacecraft. We can tailor our training program depending on the experience and backgrounds of the attendees, and the training objectives.

ISISPACE can propose mission design workshop to first get your team familiar with the scope under which CubeSat can support your business and iterate together on the conceptualization and trade-off of your mission use cases to finally converge to a baseline architecture and proposal for your funding round.

We always strive to respond to your inquiry within 1-3 working days.

You can send your inquiry using our website form or send a direct email to sales@isispace.nl telling us for which product(s) you would like to receive a quote and we’ll get right back to you.
