SPINNER Rotary Joints Fly to Mars
The Chinese Tianwen-1 Mars mission carried special space-appropriate single- and dual-channel X-Band rotary joints from SPINNER on board. Following its launch on July 23, 2020, it became the first Chinese spacecraft to go into orbit around the red planet on February 10, 2021. Rotary joints from SPINNER are making a crucial contribution to driving technological advances and enabling precise communication in outer space. Outer space is probably one of the harshest environments in which SPINNER’s products are used, they must meet the strictest imaginable requirements in terms of reliability, precision and quality.
