Fail-safe Space Electronics

Space Qualified Electronics from Avionics and Navigation
to SATCOM and Transponders

Aiming for the Stars

Following the space race of the 20th century, the final frontier is busier than ever with the rapid deployment of satellite communications and the continuous pursuit of deep space exploration. Whether it's spacecraft payloads, or launch vehicle electronics, Naprotek is building the technology of the future, today.

Circuits manufactured by Naprotek provide precision control of guidance, navigation, and fuel systems, and power communications extending from 5G wireless networks, gateways, and terrestrial base stations, to SATCOM terminals, transponders, and antennas. Leveraging best-in-class quality standards including AS-9102, AS-9100, ISO-9001 and a host of IPC-specific requirements, we're meeting and exceeding the stringent demands of their space industry.

Above and Beyond

Naprotek’s commitment is to consistently deliver electronics assemblies to the highest standards that produce first time right, fail-safe devices that are inspected from early prototypes, first article, and flight-ready volume production. Naprotek uses multiple, dedicated quality stages to evaluate the product as it flows through production. We leverage optical, mechanical and X-ray inspection to ensure high-quality assemblies at sub-micron level accuracies. 

We have established factories which operate under the following certifications, procedures and regulations:

  • ISO9001:2015 — Quality Management Systems
  • AS9100D —Quality Management Systems — Aviation, Space, and Defense
  • International Traffic In Arms Regulation (ITAR)
  • IPC-A-610 — Acceptability of Electronics Assemblies
  • IPC-A-620— Requirements and Acceptance for Cable and Wire Harness Assemblies
  • IPC-7711/7721 — Rework, Modification and Repair of Electronic Assemblies
  • IPC-J-STD-001 — Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies
  • J-STD-001GS —Space and Military Applications Electronic Hardware Addendum
