ASSEMBLY AND TESTING COMPLEX OF SPACE VEHICLES (ATC SV)


GOAL

To create in Kazakhstan a technological and production base for the design, manufacture, assembly and testing of spacecraft, payload components and elements of space technology

COMPOSITION OF ATC SV

 - a special design and technology bureau that ensures the implementation of all design and engineering work.
- an assembly and testing complex that provides a closed cycle for assembling and testing spacecraft weighing from 100 kg to 6 tons.
- Pilot production, which will have laboratories and production sites for the manufacture of individual components of spacecraft. 

PRODUCTION CAPACITIES OF ATC SV

 - Assembly and testing of spacecraft up to 6 tons with maximum dimensions of 3x3x6 m;
- types of tested spacecraft – telecommunication spacecraft, remote sensing, scientific and technological. 

PRODUCTION STRUCTURE OF ATC SV

– Spacecraft assembly and functional testing hall (HIGHBAY);
– area of thermal vacuum tests (TVAC);
-Area for measuring the inertial-mass characteristics of the spacecraft (MRM);
– Site of vibration tests (VIB);
– Acoustic test area (RevAC);
– Radio frequency test site (CATR);
– Test area for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). 

OPERATION

– Operation of the ASC spacecraft is carried out by Galam LLP, a joint venture between JSC NC Kazakhstan Gharysh Sapary and Airbus Defense and Space (France).
