Founded in 2007 in Southern California, Techno Planet Inc is a woman-owned and family-run spacecraft mechanisms design and manufacturing company. The company began primarily as a consultancy, designing products for customers to manufacture themselves and consulting on both engineering and management across space, aviation, and other markets. As New Space evolved and barriers to entry fell, new customers began requesting that we not only build but also deliver the hardware ourselves. TPI has since evolved, now focusing on spacecraft mechanisms for development and manufacturing in-house and working with agility to develop on-time and quality solutions that fit each customer’s specifications. Capabilities include: Solar Array Drive Assemblies (SADA's), Thruster Gimbals, Hold Down and Release Mechanisms, Sample Acquisition and Handling Mechanisms, and Consulting, but we have expertise in much more.
