The Chennai-based KCP Ltd's Heavy Engineering Unit received an order from the Bengaluru-headquartered ISRO for the fabrication of two IADT Crew Module structures for the demonstration of its technical readiness levels prior to the inaugural human space flight programme.
The first IADT-CM weighing 3,120 kgs, measuring 3.1 diameter and 2.6 metre height is made of aluminium and the entire structure comprises more than 100 components.
The structure would accommodate major subsystems like parachute system, pyros, avionics and buoyancy augmentation system, KCP Ltd said in a company statement.
While the designing part was done by ISRO, the KCP-Heavy Engineering Unit fabricated and realised the module at its facilities.
