Propulsion

Moog offers components to complete propulsion system solutions to meet customers’ specific needs. From propellant tanks to valves, thrusters, thrust vector control and beyond, Moog delivers flight proven propulsion hardware for every stage of a mission. 

Space Propulsion Solutions

Spacecraft Propulsion Systems

Complete propulsion systems for spacecraft are used to accelerate the spacecraft for orbit-insertion, station-keeping, or attitude control.

Spacecraft Propulsion Components

Reliable components and subsystems for chemical, electric and cold gas propulsion systems, designed for small to large satellites.

Launch Vehicle Components

Components and subsystems for launch vehicles regulate propulsion and pressurants for SRBs, main engine and upper stage engines.

Xenon Thrusters

Moog cold gas thruster valves are direct-acting, solenoid actuated devices with a nylon poppet which is integrated in the armature/poppet assembly. In the de-energized closed position, the armature/poppet assembly is held against the seat by a conical spiral spring.

Satellite Evolution Global: Moog Propulsion Revolutionizing The Way To Space

For decades, governments and industry leaders around the world have been looking for propellants that are safer and more environmentally friendly. Europe has been at the forefront of green propulsion primarily due to REACH legislation that may eventually ban hydrazine, and as the numbers of launches and space activity hit record levels, there is a renewed focus and attention on green propulsion and less toxic propellants. Moog continues its strategy of strong investment in less toxic or “green” propulsion research and development, led by our materials expertise, our history of being on the cutting edge of in-space propulsion, and our ongoing investment in state-of-the-art assembly and test facilities.
