Means. Perfection. We have successfully introduced a serial production of a high-performance electric propulsion technology. Based on value stream analysis, a scalable production line design has been implemented that scales to mega constellation production rates. Lean manufacturing philosophy allows to implement a product lifecycle philosophy that combines New Space agility with heritage quality processes, while providing high customer value in terms of product performance, cost reduction and short cycle times. >200 thrusters in space >300 Thrusters delivered worldwide >400 accumulated years of on-orbit operations Download Case study CompactPowerfulModularCompact 6th Generation PPU > 85% efficiency Easy and fast Plug & Play INTEGRATION Compact Developed for ESA Science Missions The ENPULSION NANO module is used as a compact pre-qualified building block in order to provide custom solutions at a commodity price and ultra-short lead times. Even though its building blocks are completely self-contained propulsion systems, the whole cluster can be operated as a single plug-and-play unit. Powerful Inert non-pressurized tank during launch Due to the efficient ionization process which allows to ionize up to 60% of the evaporated Indium atoms, the ENPULSION NANO can provide a higher specific impulse than any other ion propulsion system currently on the market. Powerful Extremely high total impulse density Significantly cheaper than Xenon Modular Made of pre-qualified building blocks No extra cost for customization Modular No additional lead times The modular design of the ENPULSION NANO allows for an easy clustering to various configurations. This introduces an inherent redundancy of the system, as each module is completely independent.

Chris Biddy Astro Digital ENPULSION was able to provide complete propulsion systems ready to fly, incredibly fast and simple to integrate. Scott Larson Helios Wire Helios Wire evaluated several propulsion solutions for our Sirion Pathfinder-2 Satellite, and Enpulsion IFM was the most efficient system in the smallest package. It met our goals for performance, price and schedule. Per-Erik Atterwall Beyond Atlas We have chosen the Enpulsion thruster. It is the only one that will let us pack enough delta V, in the small package of our 12U space craft, to carry out the mission. The mission is to break orbit and explore an asteroid. Prof. Dr. Klaus Schilling Zentrum für Telematik The decision came after ZfT evaluated several propulsion options and finally selected as a clear winner the IFM Nano Thruster, which is based on ENPULSION’s proprietary Field-Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) technology. FEEP allows effortless scalability and cost efficiency in a compact and easy-to-implement product. Jose Gonzalez del Amo European Space Agency Head of the Electric Propulsion Section ENPULSION has turned the idea of a theoretically possible thruster into a real product that became a global reference in electric propulsion for CubeSats and small satellites. Many research centres and companies are trying to understand the physics behind such developments but just a few can reach the level of maturity required for a competitive product and even less can demonstrate product leadership in the space domain. Stephen Steg Blue Canyon Technologies The assemblies were delivered on time, and the technical support was excellent. We found that Enpulsion was an outstanding supplier, and we are looking forward to a long relationship with them.
