## About

Established in 2021 and based in Beijing, China, Micro Drive operates as is an aerospace company that engages in the R&D, and manufacturing of aerospace core electromechanical components. It has a lab in Beijing, where researchers can do  (solar panel drive components) SADA precision assembly and testing, drive assembly precision testing, rudder servo system assembly testing, industrial permanent magnet motor drive control product testing, conductive slip ring assembly testing, and some environmental testing. In July 2023, Micro Drive raised strategic investment from new investors Beijing New Aerotropolis Fund management, CPG Capital Partners, and Everchanging Fund. 

The company provides SADA, and electricity transfer modules. It launched solar array driving mechanism (SADM) with power transmission capacity ranging from 100W to 4.5kW, and related solar array driving electronics (SADE) controllers. And it also derived a number of satellite drive mechanism products, by integrating and reorganising the functional components of SADA products. And derived products include star-carrying solar sail deployment components, multi-stage drive components, electric propulsion pointing mechanism (TOM), and electric transmission components for laser communication.

The Company plans to complete the first phase of the construction of the pilot-scale production line in Beijing, and the technical preparations for the mass production of SADA and rudder servo systems by the end of 2023, and to build production bases in Xuzhou in 2024.
