Space Electronics

Space Electronics' invented measurement methods define its instrument line for measuring the mass properties of aerospace objects. The instruments use force restoration for center of gravity measurement, the inverted torsion pendulum for moment of inertia, and a spherical gas bearing spin balance machine that reads product of inertia and center of gravity offset in a single run.

Its instruments hold moment accuracy of 1 part in 300,000, while load cell instruments used by other mass properties instrument makers reach 1 part in 2,000. One instrument covers 100% to under 3% of full scale, whereas other manufacturers supply several different size instruments to accomplish the same goal. The company sells mass properties instruments, services, and electronic circuit testers used across unmanned aerial vehicles, satellites, commercial aerospace, military aviation, and defense weapon systems, and it also provides testing and aftermarket services alongside its instruments.
