Tracking Our World
Orbital Systems provides antenna positioners and systems that meet the high performance accuracy and high reliability needs of demanding tracking applications such as Earth Observation Satellites(EOS) Direct Broadcast (DB), UAV/RPV tracking, Three dimensional radar (3DR), Telemetry and Control (TT&C), Search & Rescue (SARSAT), and general Satellite Uplink applications.
Downtime and maintenance due to system failures are costly. Orbital Systems set out to develop ground station products that have excellent Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) and low Mean Time to Repair (MTTR). They are designed to need very little preventative maintenance over the course of their lifecycle. The key distinction of all Orbital products is that they are engineered and built to the highest level of performance in their class while being very reliable.
Superior performance and reliability is the result of engineering innovation, higher quality material choices, and manufacturing excellence. When new products are designed, the common causes of conventional positioner failures are analyzed and design alternatives are chosen that eliminate the problem. Orbital Systems is vertically integrated and manufactures over 95% of the metal parts used in our positioners in house, and also designs and builds all major electronic subsystems used in our products. Our mechanical engineering and manufacturing use the latest technology in 3D modeling, CAD, CAM, and CNC technology.
To design, manufacture and test products like these requires special facilities. Take a virtual tour of our excellent manufacturing and development facilities here.
Steady growth and customer loyalty attest that Orbital Systems delivers the best price/performance available anywhere in the world, and supports our customers like no other.
