Derived from the experience in nanosatellite missions, SMPOD is the new family of NPC Spacemind CubeSat
deployers.
Designed to provide outstanding quality and performances, together
with the maximum handling flexibility that allows mechanism reset and rearming in a few seconds, SMPOD aims
to shift the paradigm in commercial space sector ensuring reduced lead time and strong economic
competitiveness.
Dynamic Rail prevents the exit of the Cubesat
until the door reaches a safe angle
Door opening by redundant non-explosive
actuators
Safe guided satellite deployment
Reduntant feedbacks for door opening and satellite deployment
Fast loading procedure and mechanism reset (<30 s)
Lighter than commercial
standards <1,45 kg
High allowable lateral clearance for the satellite (>9 mm)
