  • Successful Mission of Tupod, an Innovative Cubesat, a Tubesats Deployer Manufactured Via Additive Manufacturing by CRP USA Using Windform® XT 2.0 Composite Material
    Successful mission of TuPOD, an innovative CubeSat, a TubeSats deployer manufactured via Additive Manufacturing by CRP USA using Windform® XT 2.0 composite material ABSTRACT Small satellites provide a responsive alternative to larger, more expensive satellites. As demand grows, engineers must adapt these “nanosatellites” or CubeSats to provide new achievements and goals. One of these achievements is deploying TubeSats from International Space Station (ISS). TubeSats are cylindrical shape and are not compatible with normal CubeSats deployer platform (P-POD) on ISS, thus, an innovative nano-satellite, TuPOD (Tubesat-POD), was developed to address the challenge. TuPOD inaugurated a new era for scientists wanting to use small, highly reliable satellites. It is the first complete 3D printed satellite launched from the ISS, made by CRP USA from CRP Technology’s proprietary material Windform® XT 2.0, the ground breaking carbon fiber reinforced composite 3D printing material known for its mechanical properties, developed with CRP USA. (shown in Figure 1) Figure 1: TuPOD deployed © JAXA / NASA OVERVIEW The story of TuPOD began when a group of Brazilian Students needed to launch their TubeSat, TANCREDO-1, from ISS. They approached G.A.U.S.S. Srl (Group of Astrodynamics for the Use of Space Systems), an Italian company with close relationship to the University of Rome, to help them overcoming the challenge of launching their TubeSat from ISS. CRP USA LLC Headquarters Office 127 Goodwin Circle, Mooresville NC 28115 Phone 704-660-0258 GAUSS was faced with the challenge of designing an innovative system to deploy the first TubeSats into orbit that could act as both a satellite and release platform.

We have come a long way since 1991, and SRT has been a great witness to the numerous advances in our field—many of which we could only have dreamed of. Our modern world with its rapid communication and thirst for bite-sized news items and updates, combined with the fast-moving developments of space business these days, means that SRT has had to change, to meet our current needs.

Author the Scientific and Technical commission at its session in Abstract— After exploring space for more than 50 years for February 1994, in accordance with General Assembly research, study and defense purposes, the region above the resolution 48/39 of 10 December 1993. Furthermore, as for atmosphere of earth is highly polluted by orbital debris. public and business utilization, satellites have become an Figure 1 shows the total number of rocket launches in period integral a part of human society because of their essential role of nine years. This has become a concern for placing satellites in information and recreational sectors, telecommunications, in their respective orbits and their safe functioning during navigation, meteorology, remote sensing, commerce, and their mission. Space debris or orbital debris colloquially national security. The Subcommittee agreed that known as space junk are parts of the non-functional satellites, consideration of space debris was important and international thermal blankets, booster stages of the rockets. Those cooperation was needed to evolve appropriate and affordable satellites are placed in the several orbits according to their strategies to minimize the potential impact of space debris on missions. Mainly, they are placed in LEO (Low Earth Orbit), future space missions.[7] In its further sessions, the an earth centered orbit ranging from 200 to 2000 kilometers.
