Our projects
In more than 15 years of activities, SAB has been involved in several projects facing with the mechanical design, thermal and structural analyses of space systems and subsystems, with high precision mechanical integration activities, testing activities and with the manufacturing of flight hardware and mechanical ground support equipment.
SSMS

Since 2020 we enable Vega rockets to launch tens of small satellites in a single flight by using our SSMS structure, tailored to the needs of our customers.
PLATO SVM

PLATO uses 26 stargazing cameras tailor-made for the space environment. We provide specialised transport containers to make sure that they are safe and clean while being moved or stored on the ground.
ROSE-L

An ambitious Czech mission involving a large part of our space science and industry, with SAB leading the development. These 2 satellites will demonstrate technologies for future space mining missions, while also providing unique data for scientific study of meteors, planetary defense and commercialization of space resources.
IOSHEX
