Context:

The proposed project focuses on the optimization of the design of a CubeSat structure, utilizing PEEK family polymer and coated with aluminium thin-films. The assembly will be reduced to 2 parts, thus minimizing assembly complexity.

The challenge:

• The proposed project focuses on the optimization (mass reductions >30%) of the design of a CubeSat structure, utilizing PEEK polymer for SLS process and coated with aluminium thin-films.
• Develop non metallic flying primary structure, mass saving, minimizing assembly complexity.
• Cost saving.
• Validate functional coatings: plating efficiency as well as verification of the coating thickness locally.
