This manufact is the prototype of the main component of a thruster for small and very small thrusts for the precision orbital positioning of scientific satellites. The design was performed in cooperation with Thales Alenia Spazio, who, based on this prototype, built the flight thrusters. The prototype is fully functioning and allowed to validate the design concept and to test the performance.
