🚀 Successful Vega-C Launch! 🚀 Last night, the European Vega-C launcher completed its VV25 (VC 03) mission, taking off from the Guiana Space Center and successfully placing the Sentinel-1C observation satellite into its intended orbit. This launch marks the return to flight for Vega-C and reaffirms Europe's strategic autonomy in space access. Vega-C, alongside Ariane 6, enhances Europe's space capabilities, enabling a variety of payloads to be placed in distinct orbits. SABCA played an important role in this success by providing the interstage "skirt" and thrust vector control (TVC) systems for the launcher's four stages, ensuring the rocket stayed on its trajectory. Congratulations to AVIO, the European Space Agency - ESA, and the SABCA Actuation Systems team for their contributions to this mission! #VegaC #Actuation #Aerospace #ESA Orizio Group

The first Ariane 6 flight successfully lifted off from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana on July 9th 2024. This maiden flight adds a new capability to Europe's fleet of launcher systems. 🚀SABCA is the European leader and sole supplier for the design and manufacture of TVAS (Thrust Vector Actuation Systems), used to steer the engine nozzles on each stage of Ariane 6: the boosters, the lower central stage and the upper central stage. 👉🏻The role of our electromechanical actuators is to act on nozzle orientation and therefore on the thrust vector of the engines, thereby controlling the rocket's trajectory during its flight phase. ✅These electromechanical and hydraulic actuators are a 100% Sabca design - we also produce a large proportion of the metal and mechatronic parts, as well as the final assembly, qualification and acceptance testing of the TVAS at the SABCA Brussels site. Apart from that, Sabca also manufactures parts of the Ariane fuselage. 🎉Congrats to all the teams that have been working day in, day out during the last 10 years to help make this maiden flight a success. Let us celebrate the start of the new generation of European space activities. #Ariane6 #ESA #Actuators #SABCA European Space Agency - ESA
