Spaceflight Systems
Spacecraft and their systems have to perform in an environment of robust relationships. The same is true of the supply chain responsible for developing and producing those complex systems and subsystems. Vivace is dedicated to long-term customer relationships by providing stability, reliability, repeatability, and close communication through all phases of our programs.
Beginning with the proposal stage, Vivace can work with our customers’ engineers to evaluate draft requirements and provide expert feedback to ensure our customers are getting the most value for every dollar. These early inputs often lead to significant reductions in cost, mass, lead time, and risk.
Vivace has developed reliable and highly mass-efficient components and subsystems at exceptional value for top-tier and smaller clients alike. Our focus is on providing a professional, responsive, turn-key experience for our customers, including on-time delivery, every time.
Vivace Capabilities
COPV Propellent Tanks
- Vivace provides Composite Overwrapped high performance propellant tanks for many different spacecraft, including those supporting LEO, MEO, GEO, Orbital Refueling, and Lunar missions
- These tanks feature low mass, cost, and lead time when compared to other available systems. Vivace tanks also have demonstrated industry-leading cycle life and are designed to leak before burst, enhancing spacecraft safety.
COPV Pressurant Tanks
- Vivace provides Composite Overwrapped high performance pressurant tanks for many different spacecraft, including those supporting LEO, MEO, GEO, Orbital Refueling, and Lunar missions
- Composite Overwrapped pressurant tanks are used in several applications, including propulsion system pressurization, attitude control systems, and environmental control and life support systems.
PMD Tanks
- Most propellant tanks include Propellant Management Devices (PMDs) to control fluid motion and location inside of the tank during all phases of the mission.
- Vivace PMD’s has developed PMD’s for a variety of missions, including hypersonic atmospheric, orbital, and lunar lander missions.
