ThermAvant Technologies To Enhance Digital Satellite Tech With MDA SPACE Partnership

ThermAvant Technologies has been selected by MDA Space Ltd. (TSX:MDA) to join the supply chain for MDA AURORA™, a new product line transitioning satellite technology from analog to digital. ThermAvant will provide engineering services and hardware solutions featuring its oscillating heat pipe (OHP) technology. Over the past five years, ThermAvant has developed lightweight OHP-based thermal-mechanical structures for MDA Space, aiming to maximize payload capabilities while minimizing lead times and total cost of ownership.

The MDA AURORA™ supply chain will support product deliveries for Telesat’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation, Telesat Lightspeed. This advanced global network aims to provide enterprise-class connectivity worldwide. Joe Boswell, CEO of ThermAvant Tech, stated, "ThermAvant Tech is continuously advancing oscillating heat pipes to enhance performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of aerospace platforms. Being selected by MDA Space as part of the MDA AURORA™ supply chain highlights our shared commitment to pushing the boundaries of the space industry. We look forward to contributing to the success of the Telesat Lightspeed constellation and the transformative impact it will have on global connectivity."

ThermAvant Tech is a leading developer and manufacturer of oscillating heat pipe (OHP) technology. The company integrates OHP technology into materials to optimize thermal-mechanical performance while minimizing Size, Weight, Power plus Cost (SWaP-C). Technology firms and U.S. agencies utilize ThermAvant’s OHPs to deliver more power in smaller packages without temperature constraints imposed by conventional heat transfer solutions.

MDA Space (TSX:MDA) is a trusted partner in the global space industry with over 55 years of experience and more than 450 missions. The company specializes in robotics, satellite systems, and geointelligence. With a team of over 3,000 space experts in Canada, the U.S., and the UK, MDA Space has a proven track record in communications satellites, Earth and space observation, and space exploration and infrastructure.

The software-defined MDA AURORA™ product line is designed to meet evolving technical and business requirements in the satellite industry. It offers operators enhanced flexibility and functionality, significantly improving constellation performance while reducing costs and time to market.
