About

Comat reaction wheels are built with robust mechanical architecture and embedded electronics, offering precision attitude control for small and medium satellites. They are optimized for platforms ranging from 10 to 1,000 kg, with angular momentum from 20 mNms to 50 Nms. These wheels are engineered for the future, anticipating extended lifespans and increased performance requirements of modern satellite constellations, ensuring reliability long after mission commencement. They feature a plug-and-play architecture with fully embedded electronics for seamless integration, radiation-tolerant design paired with high-grade stainless-steel bearing technology for space-proven reliability, and a compact footprint for easy accommodation within crowded satellite internal layouts. Comat has transitioned to a large-scale industrial model with a state-of-the-art production facility dedicated to high-volume serial manufacturing.
