We provide green in-space propulsion technologies for every spacecraft. Based on more than a decade of research and development activities at DLR.
InSpacePropulsion Technologies (ISPTech) is a Spin-Off of the Institute of Space Propulsion at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
Current space propulsion systems offer either low cost or a high reliability. With our solutions – based on thousands of hot firing tests at DLR’s facilities – we can serve both worlds: offering low costs with high performance and high reliability.
Our two technologies are suitable for all spacecraft sizes and classes – ranging from cubesats to large satellites, capsules or landers. No matter, if you are a NewSpace player, a large satellite integrator or an institutional organisation, we will offer the right propulsion solution for your specific application.
We offer propulsion systems based on two technologies: The self-pressurizing HyNOx and the patented, hypergolic HIP_11 propellant. Learn more about them here.
We offer cost-effective and high-performance propulsion for your mission and space craft. Extensively tested thrusters, capable systems and more.
