Optomechatronic Lab for aerospace

TNO Space & Systems Engineering, Campus Delft University of Technology

TNO (the Netherlands Organisation for applied scientific research) is a contract research organisation carrying out research in order to support innovation across various sectors and domains.

Its expertise group Space & Systems Engineering (TNO SSE) supports enterprises, research institutes and authorities by developing and supplying optomechatronic instruments and systems for aerospace, ground-based astronomy and scientific research.

External parties can make use of the facilities of TNO SSE: The equipment of Instrument Manufacturing through the intermediary of TNO-technicians.

The Instrument Manufacturing (IM) group within the department Space System Engineering (SSE) translates the customer’s technical requirements into accurate instruments and working environments. IM also advices on manufacturability, process from initial concept to execution and on anticipated product costs.

IM offers expertise:

  • CNC turning and (high speed) milling (in combination with CAD-CAM)
  • Conventional turning and milling
  • Experimental production and prototyping
  • Precision adhesives
  • Cleaning (up to Grade 1+)
  • Measurement, integration and validation (also in cleanrooms)

The following equipment is for rent (through an experienced TNO operator):

  • 5-axis CNC milling machine: Fehlmann P90-M
  • 5-axis CNC milling machine: Fehlmann P75-M
  • 3-axis Fehlmann Picomax P54 milling machine, 2 pieces with NC distributor
  • CMM Zeiss Prismo Ultra measuring machine in clean room environment. Measurement accuracy of 0,5 μm + L/500. Measuring volume 900mm x 1300mm x 650mm (X, Y, Z).
  • CNC turning machine Schaublin 125-CCN
  • CNC turning machine Schaublin 180-CCN
  • Conventional Schaublin 125 turning machines, 2 pieces
  • Conventional Schaublin 150 turning machine
