Micro dispensing for solar panel installation in satellites

Precision on a new trajectory

marco systems dispensing solutions have been developed for critical applications in the aerospace industry - such as the precise bonding of glass tiles to satellite solar panels. Our systems apply 2-component silicone adhesive with a uniform geometry. Once the tiles have been laid, the adhesive is distributed evenly under pressure - for full-surface contact without air pockets or overflow. 

In the subsequent sealing step, our technology also handles the ‘street-fill’ between the tiles - with high reproducibility and absolute process reliability.

Your advantages in the micro dispensing of solar panels for satellites

• Even volume distribution - without reworking
  Our precise 2K silicone dispensing ensures even adhesive distribution under the glass tiles. The dispensing pattern reduces tension, avoids air pockets and eliminates the need for reworking.
• Street-fill applications – integrated or parallel
  Whether using a single system for both bonding and street filling or two systems in sequence: marco systems’ solutions enable efficient workflows and deliver a clean component finish.
  • A single system saves valuable floor space – ideal when space is limited.
  • Two systems reduce cycle time as bonding and filling can run in parallel.
  • Both setups simplify the process and ensure high-quality, repeatable results.
• Reproducible quality - even in cyclical operation
  Whether prototype or series production: our systems ensure exact dispensing quantities and process stability - even with changing geometries or web movements (dispensing paths).
• Continuous quality monitoring
  High-resolution cameras monitor every step of the dispensing process, ensuring maximum precision and seamless quality assurance.

For over 40 years, marco System Analysis and Development has been setting global benchmarks in micro dispensing technology. Now, our precision systems are also taking off in the world of aerospace engineering.
