CSA Engineering's ESPA (EELV Secondary Payload Adapter) impacted the lunar surface on Oct 9, 2009 as part of NASA’s Lunar CRater Observation Sensory Satellite (LCROSS). Ultilizing ESPA as a satellite structural backbone has demonstrated its value in minimizing non-recurring engineering (NRE) expenditures, shortening development schedules and reducing test and qualification requirements.
Vibration Control
Vibration Control
Moog’s wholly-owned subsidiary CSA Engineering, Inc. brings product and service capabilities to solve the most demanding vibration and motion control solutions for aerospace and commercial applications. Over the past 25 years, Moog CSA has assisted commercial and military aerospace customers to provide:
- Satellite Payload and Vibration Isolation Systems
- Ground-Based Test Systems
- Hexapods for Space and Missile Systems
- Tuned Mass Dampers for Vibration Control
- SoftRide Spacecraft Isolation Systems
- Shock Test Services
- Spacecraft Jitter Simulation
- Modular Satellite Structures for Rapid Assembly
Providing Ground Test-Launch Assistance-On Orbit Support
Moog CSA supports all areas of a spacecraft’s lifetime, from ground test to launch assistance to on-orbit support. We emphasize vibration and shock management without compromising other systems requirements, supplying:
- Structures and Payload Interfaces which directs attention to on-orbit functionality rather than launch survival
- Adapters which enable multiple payloads to launch larger ones and function as the core of satellites and orbital transfer vehicles
- Instrument and Chassis-level Shock and Vibration Isolation Systems to protect components during launch and reduce on-orbit jitter
Applications Built for the Future Constellation
Moog CSA applies established methods rigorously and develops new ones when nothing exists. Our products are not limited by conventional constraints, which is why we are contributing key technologies to NASA constellation programs and Operationally Responsive Space.
