Propulsion simulator SCOEfor a nationalsatellite programme
The challenge
RST Rostock System-Technik developed and integrated special check-out equipment (SCOE) for a national satellite programme. The SCOE serves as a propulsion simulator which simulates the satellite’s drive system functions, thus enabling the functional verification of the relevant components. This development was made for OHB.
