Still need to show the detailed schematics and state that we used M2 screws and M2 Heated inserts.
In the smallsat industry, there is a measurement standard known as the U. The U is a scalar value that describes the overall volume of your satellite. Each U represents a 10cm x 10cm x 10cm volume. The notation when describing the size using the U system is to add a scalar multiple before the U. For example, in our project, we aimed to make a 1.5U satellite. This means a satellite with a base that measures 10cm x 10cm and a height of 15cm.
For the simplification, we designed the satellite using CAD programs like SolidWorks and 3D printed the final designs using PLA filament. We used 25% infill on all of our designs to try to find a balance between the amount of time it takes to print each piece and how strong each piece is.
Below are detailed schematics of all parts that were used for the final satellite body and an explosion GIF to show how the body was assembled.
