The compact cyber reaction wheel 2 is especially designed for attitude control used in 1-8 U satellites. Due to its cube shape with integrated electronic control it can be used in several configurations. The reaction wheel is provided with vacuum-rated bearings and components resisting radiation terms up to 200 Gy. Profiting from the experience of WITTENSTEIN cyber motor in the field of precise small permanent magnet servo systems and ZFT in the field of reliable space electronics and software engineering, the cyber reaction wheel 2 is space proven.
The products offers 2.0mNms of angular momentum storage with the cube shape of just 20x20x20 mm. A high dynamic acceleration and precise sensor less controlling offer high robustness, low vibration and fast maneuvers. For commissioning, WITTENSTEIN cyber motor offers a reaction wheel starter kit, whereby the reaction wheel can be put into operation within a few moments using a PC and the MotionGUI 2 graphical user interface. This also allows diagnostics, optimization and parameterization to be carried out.
