Astronika

Astronika is a Polish space engineering company founded in 2013 and based in Raszyn near Warsaw, specializing in precision space mechanisms, deployable structures, and hardware for planetary exploration. The company focuses on developing compact, lightweight, and energy-efficient mechanical solutions for demanding space environments, from Earth-orbiting satellites to deep-space landers and rovers.

Astronika's product and service range covers deployable booms, antennas, and solar panel release systems; precision actuators and propulsion valves; subsurface penetrators and surface mobility systems for planetary missions; and structural components for scientific instruments. The company has contributed mechanisms and engineering to ESA missions including ExoMars, JUICE, and Mars Express, as well as to commercial and governmental satellite programs.

In addition to hardware development, Astronika provides structural and thermal analysis, environmental testing (using in-house cleanroom and thermal vacuum chamber facilities), and ground support equipment design. The company's engineering team brings deep expertise in the full development cycle — from concept and PDR/CDR review through manufacturing, test, and launch support — for clients ranging from international space agencies to emerging NewSpace companies.
