Quick Overview
The 1–15 mN Electromagnetic Ratio Cold-Gas Thruster adopts a non-contact, frictionless screw-type electromagnetic drive mechanism that allows precise control of thrust output through continuous adjustment of the drive signal. This continuously variable thrust system is particularly suited for fine attitude control of micro- and small-satellites, as well as for scientific or formation-flying satellites requiring ultra-high-precision control and disturbance compensation.
