How it works
Warlock
The Warlock uses a metal propellent and recharged internal energy to create a high energy plasma.
How it works
The Magdrive Warlock generates thrust an order of magnitude higher than other similar sized electric propulsion systems.
The full integrated system fits inside a single 2U cubesat with a dry mass of 2.5 kg, including propellant, onboard processor and energy storage, and plasma injector.
Features
Charge up, charge out
The Magdrive thruster uses a pulsed power system (PPS) to deliver a multi-kA, MW class electrical current pulse to the plasma injector
Customizable performance
Enables adjustable specific impulse and deep throttling for rendezvous, proximity operations, and precise maneuvering
Integrated microprocessor
Commanded through the satellite's master controls for an easy-to-integrate propulsion system
Storable metal propellant
Removes the need for heavy fuel tanks, cryogenics or pressurization, and eliminates handling hazards
Directional thrust
By altering its magnetic properties, a single thruster can vector up to 10˚ for main propulsion or attitude control
