Altran has several years of experience in space missions, space sciences, spacecraft technologies and applications, taking space exploration and security to higher levels. Our experts have the ability to integrate technology development and innovation to fulfil the needs for the future. Altran has dedicated a significant effort in the design, development and performance verification of systems devoted to space. Based on the outstanding experience in the frame of commercial and institutional ESA and ASI programs such as Radarsat 2, COSMO-SkyMed, Kompsat 5,MIOsat, PRISMA, Altran can therefore provide the best expertise for the realization of structural design and analysis for SPACEBUS. Our major clients are THALES ALENIA SPACE, CNES, CNRS, EADS Astrium and many more.

Our capabilities range from definition of mission design to the end of mission life. We are involved in projects like Design and Development, FEM study and analysis (Static, Venting, Dynamic, Buckling, Ground Handling Shock, EVA on Orbit,  Fail Safe, Crack, Shock and Thermal analysis performed on dedicated Finite Element Model) on particular space electronic components, flight unit, Circulator Isolator Limiter, Coarse Pointing Device and payload fairing. We have also worked on projects on areas like System Assembly, Integration and Testing Activities Monitoring for Radars. Our main areas of focus are design and development, mechanics propulsion, flight electronics, Environmental projects based on Earth observation such as the Global Monitoring for Environment and Safety (GMES) program, Telecommunication Satellites, Mini and micro-satellites, and Launcher system.
