Key highlights
Ultra-flat shape-memory release actuator made to secure most delicate space mechanisms and deployable during their ride to space.
The Dcubed Nano SmartPack Release Nut (nD3SP) is a Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) based release actuator that locks sensitive equipment during launch and safely releases it on orbit. It is one of the flattest, yet powerful HDRM solutions on the market. Moreover, it is easily resettable, easy to use, and readily available as a COTS component.
