Mechanical Workshop

The Mechanical Workshop undertakes the construction of all mechanical systems, whether they be flight or developmental. These vary from plasma detectors to full telescopes and from radiation shields to cryogenic coolers.

The workshop is equipped for precision machining.

 

Other specialist equipment includes an Electric Discharge Machine, shown here during one of its production cycles.

The engineering performed in the mechanical workshop focuses on producing specialised, high-precision low-volume parts for laboratory and space instrumentation.
