Summary

The VEOWARE SPACE WHL-100 Reaction Wheel is a low power system with momentum capacity of 100 mNms.

The compact design features regenerative braking and offers firmware updating in orbit.

The WHL-100 Reaction Wheel is exclusively designed, manufactured, and owned by Space Inventor. Simultaneously, Veoware retains the authorization to resell this product.

Reaction wheels enable satellites to reposition while in orbit without the use of propellants or other external sources of torque.

Three-axis control is enabled through angular momentum conservation of the contained flywheel, which creates the required torque on the system.

The VEOWARE SPACE WHL-100 is a 100 mNms system with a mass of 0.35 kg.

Multiple WHL-100 systems can be used in combination to satisfy different mission requirements.

The WHL-100 has been designed to minimize microvibrations and tested to ensure optimal performance with low jitter and low torque noise.
