It aims to offer sub-orbital commercial launch services by 2026 and ultimately orbital services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe already offer our customers various space systems services and are currently conducting pilot tests for the different parts of our new fully reusable rocket,\u201d explains Safouane Benamer, CEO of Opus Aerospace. \u201cWe\u2019re planning a test launch of our Mesange rocket in early 2024, which will pave the way for us to launch sub-orbital payloads of up to 1,000 kg and orbital payloads of 250 kg. We\u2019ll scale up our offering step by step.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Meeting the needs of critical rocket applications<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPUS Aerospace is using BUMAX\u00ae 88 screws to secure the two domes of a prototype cylindrical fuel tank for the Mesange suborbital rocket. The domes must have high-strength screws as they are a critical part of rocket with extremely high pressure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOur initial calculations showed that standard stainless steel fasteners simply wouldn\u2019t cope with the loads,\u201d says Ignacio Amundarain, Launcher Mechanical Engineer at OPUS Aerospace. \u201cWe have already tested and validated the design of our fuel tank with BUMAX\u00ae 88 on the ground with even more demanding pressurization tests than we can expect in normal conditions. We are confident that this will ensure the safe operation of our fuel tank.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPUS Aerospace has obtained an excess supply of BUMAX\u00ae 88 that will be used for other important applications on the prototype rocket. These include securely fastening the fuel lines from the fuel tank.<\/p>\n<h2>Excellent reliability and quality<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides high strength, BUMAX\u00ae 88 screws offer excellent reliability and quality with consistent properties. They also provide corrosion resistance, which is important for a reusable rocket that may be exposed to the elements and potentially seawater.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI know how reliable BUMAX are from my previous job of designing satellites,\u201d says Amundarain. \u201cThey are also cost effective compared with other fastener solutions with similar premium properties.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The BUMAX\u00ae 88 screws were provided with a 3.1 certificate, which confirms that they were fully tested in accordance with DIN-EN-10204 and that they are manufactured in compliance with the order specification. This ensures excellent quality and traceability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are very pleased with the level of service from the BUMAX support team who advised us on our product selection and design, and dealt with the order and delivery,\u201d concludes Amundarain. \u201cWe are looking forward to continuing our rocket development journey together with BUMAX.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The enhanced properties of BUMAX\u00ae 88 fasteners are achieved through a combination of unique BUMAX manufacturing processes and the highest quality European steel. BUMAX\u00ae 88 fasteners are also certified according to DIN EN 15048-1 (Non-preloaded structural bolting assemblies) and to meet requirements in accordance with PED 2014\/68\/EU (Pressure Equipment Directive).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4649 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bumax-fasteners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/regroup-development.com\/bumax\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/regroup-development.com\/bumax\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/regroup-development.com\/bumax\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/regroup-development.com\/bumax\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/regroup-development.com\/bumax\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/OPUS_Aerospace_Tank_2.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OPUS Aerospace was formed in 2019 to provide cost-effective launch solutions for nano-satellites, micro-satellites and mini-satellites.
