Pulsar Fusion, the UK's first green rocket company, collaborated with our engineering team to design, refine, and develop key propulsion components—ensuring regulatory compliance, optimal performance, and manufacturability through rigorous CAD modeling, research, and testing.

Our product development initially involved planning the creation of parts of the engine and components in CAD against the specification supplied. Following a review, further refinement was undertaken, to ensure the best possible product outcome. The output was 3D CAD, suitable for manufacture and a complete bill of materials.

We conducted detailed product research into space propulsion thrusters. Our team sourced potential partners who can support in generating the most appropriate specification and the procurement of potential components. We summarised our findings and outlined a plan of action, to enable the progression of the potential design.

For Pulsar Fusion, we knew that the space propulsion landscape is heavily regulated, which drove us to be extra critical of our own designs. Extensive model testing and feedback sessions occurred to ensure that every aspect of the products worked exactly how they should. We worked in collaboration with space rocket engineers, to produce a thruster based around the supplied specification that enabled Pulsar to demonstrate the technology and their expertise in the design and development of space propulsion thrusters.

The intention of the create phase of the work was to develop the following items, based on rocket engineering’s specification, to a level suitable for fabrication;
- Combustion chamber and nozzle.
- Injector design.
- Water cooling system.
