Advanced Jet Propulsion Test & Production Facility (AJPTPF)
Aliena's state-of-the-art facility in Singapore offers advanced testing and production capabilities for electric propulsion systems, including multiple vacuum chambers, clean rooms, and workshops.
Description
Aliena owns and operates the Advanced Jet Propulsion Test and Production Facility (AJPTPF), a state-of-the-art facility spanning over 4,000 sqft of working space for test and production. This integrated facility includes multiple space environment simulation chambers, a thermal vacuum chamber, clean room spaces, and workshops. It enables Aliena to conduct next-generation R&D while producing propulsion systems at scale, with on-site assembly, qualification, and testing capabilities for efficient development, validation, and delivery of high-performance thrusters. The AJPTPF is Singapore's first integrated facility dedicated to the development, testing, and production of Hall effect electric propulsion systems, combining advanced vacuum testing infrastructure with in-house integration capabilities. Beyond supporting Aliena's own research and production, the AJPTPF is also available to industry, research institutions, and government agencies seeking access to world-class electric propulsion testing facilities for validating new technology, conducting environmental testing, or running complete qualification campaigns.
