About

The TensorCMG Series is a variable-speed, single-gimbal CMG driven by spherical motor technology, reducing weight, volume, and power consumption (SWaP), with an autonomous torque calculation algorithm integrated on the control board for multi-axis torque output through simple commands. The TensorCMG-10m is designed for CubeSats up to 16U and nanosatellites up to 30 kg with flight heritage since 2022. TensorCMG-10m-V is the vertical mount configuration variant, sharing the same driving electronics architecture as the -S version but with a different mechanical footprint.
