Products and Services: 
Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH’s core competencies lie in the development, manufacture and testing of components and systems for the aerospace industry. When it comes to space technology, the company has considerable expertise in the production of bus components for small and microsatellites, e.g. reaction wheels, operating mechanisms, structures and solar panels. It also has comprehensive experience in the fields of optical and mechanical ground support equipment (OGSE and MGSE), as well as apparatus engineering for space applications, special scientific payloads and, in particular, optical and opto-electronic equipment.

In the field of aviation, competencies include the development and manufacture of components and the construction of tools, test bench apparatus and handling devices. Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH uses state-of-the-art machinery to manufacture one-of-a-kind and production lot items with the highest degree of precision and short lead times. CNC machining services range from straightforward 2½-axis processing to 5-axis machining centres and use CAD/CAM solutions throughout. Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH has extensive experience of working with special materials such as titanium alloys, high-grade steel, Inconel, structural materials (CFRP, GFRP) and synthetic materials.

In the field of environmental simulation and testing, the company has many years’ experience in standards testing and test engineering, primarily in the field of aerospace components. Not only do the company’s experts carry out mechanical testing (including vibration, shock, pyro-shock and static load testing), they also advise on setting up test schedules and procedures in accordance with the applicable standards. Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH is certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 and DIN EN 9100:2003.
