After Chandrayaan-3, Hyderabad companies now help power Aditya-L1

HYDERABAD: After playing a crucial role in India's hugely successful moon mission --Chandrayaan-3, Hyderabad-based companies, both from the public and private sector, have played a key role in powering the country's maiden solar mission -- Aditya-L1, which was launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh on Saturday.

Ananth Technologies Ltd (ATL) supplied critical systems and components for the solar spacecraft, which will study the sun, its effect on weather in space, solar disturbances and their impact on planet earth, as well as the PSLV-C57 launch vehicle that ferried Aditya-L1 into orbit, while defence PSU Midhani supplied critical materials for the spacecraft.

Midhani supplied the Ti-6Al-4V Titanium alloy used in PS4 tank and gas bottles, C-103 Niobium alloy used in PS4 thrust chamber, Superco 605 Cobalt alloy used in PS2 thrust chamber, Ultra High Strength Steel (UHSS) used in motor case and 15CDv6 also used in strap on motor case and base rings.

Ananth Technologies, which has experience in satellite systems design, development and integration, manufactured various avionics packages for Aditya-L1 comprising a range of components such as on-board computers, star sensor, modular EED systems, payload DC-DC convertors, among others.

ATL also supplied 48 subsystems for the PSLV-C57 launch vehicle, which ferried India's first solar space observatory into orbit. These include SARB, NGCP, Quad SBU, tracking transponder and other interface units and conducted a complete assembly, integration and testing (AIT).

First-of-its-kind ground station built for solar mission by ECIL
MTAR Technologies, on the other hand, supplied critical systems for PSLV-C57 such as Vikas engines, electro-pneumatic modules, valves, safety couplers and nose cone.

"We also supplied safety couplers, ball screws for launch vehicle actuation systems, connector assemblies, actuation systems hardware, nose cone, among others for PSLV-C57 launch vehicle used for the mission,” he said.

What's more, the Aditya-L1 space observatory that is hurtling towards the sun, will stay in touch with the earth from a distance of 1.5 million kilometre, thanks to the ground station for communication developed by city-based Electronics Corporation of India Limited (ECIL).

The indigenously built 18-metre antenna was set up by ECIL at Bylalu village, 40 km away from Bengaluru.

"The antenna plays a significant role in the communication system of Aditya mission," ECIL officials said. This is a first-of-its-kind monopulse earth station antenna designed, developed, manufactured and commissioned by ECIL in association with BARC and ISRO.

The antenna system employs state-of-the-art technology to precisely point at the spacecraft orbiting the sun at about 1.5 million km away from earth for acquisition of data and videos.

The ground station was commissioned by ECIL in November 2021 and put into operation from Saturday.

"The antenna is an exclusive station for Aditya support and will receive precious scientific information from the Aditya spacecraft," an official said.

Midhani chairman and managing director SK Jha said the PSU had been supplying specialised metals and alloys to ISRO from its inception to the most recent projects.

ATL too said PSLV-C57 is the seventh launch vehicle that was successfully integrated by its team with five more launch vehicles currently under integration.

There is a nice video in youtube about all the instrumentations carried by Aditya L1, watch 'Gareeb Scientist's' channel.

Good to see you looking up on him, have been watching him for about a year or two now. Good man, gives purely scientific details.

He does a good job in explaining everything to a layman, its a valuable skill, trust me.

4 Kerala PSUs part of India's first solar mission
As India’s first solar exploration satellite reached space, four Kerala public sector undertakings, including Keltron, have reason to be delighted as they too have contributed to this achievement by the country.

Various products indigenously developed and manufactured by the four PSUs – Keltron, Steel and Industrial Forgings Limited (SIFL), Travancore Cochin Chemicals (TCC) and Kerala Automobiles Ltd (KAL) – have been used in the Aditya L1 mission.

This milestone achieved by the PSUs was highlighted by state Industries Minister P Rajeev in a Facebook post.

The minister said 38 electronic modules manufactured by the Kerala State Electronics Development Corporation Limited (Keltron) were used in the PSLV-C57 launch vehicle used to send the Aditya L1 satellite into space.

In addition to that, Keltron also provided testing support for various types of electronics models required for the mission, he said.

Rajeev further said that the forgings for the various stages of the Aditya L1 launch vehicle were indigenously developed by SIFL.

The SIFL also indigenously developed various other forgings and components for the launch vehicle’s propellor tank, engine and rocket body, he said.

Besides Keltron and SIFL, TCC too played a role in the mission, the minister said.

The state-owned chemical company supplied the 150 metric tonnes of sodium chlorate crystals required for the project, he said.

Apart from all that, various components required for the rocket’s satellite separation system were supplied by KAL, the minister said in his post.

Not just Aditya-L1, but Chandrayaan-3 mission too saw the contribution of Kerala PSUs.

Six public sector companies and 20 private companies from Kerala participated in the Chandrayaan-3 mission, which successfully demonstrated a soft landing on the Moon’s south pole — the first by any country in the world.

The PSUs – Keltron, KMML, SIFL, TCC, KAL and Small Industries Development Corporations (SIDCO) – had contributed to the lunar mission.

The Kerala Minerals and Metals Limited (KMML), a major public sector undertaking (PSU) under the state government, had played a crucial role in supplying the vital titanium sponge metal for the engine parts of the country’s third lunar mission.

The KMML is the only supplier of titanium in the country.

India’s maiden solar mission, Aditya L1, on September 2 set off on a 125-day journey to the Sun in its attempt to study various elements relating to Earth’s nearest star.

The spacecraft, after traveling about 1.5 million km from the Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1 which is considered closest to the Sun.
