DCUBED is a pioneering German NewSpace company that specializes in the development and manufacturing of release actuators, mechanisms, and deployable structures for a wide range of space applications. Their innovative products are designed to accelerate space exploration by providing durable and affordable space hardware and subsystems. DCUBED stands out from traditional space exploration subsystems in terms of weight, size, cost, durability, reusability, and availability.

They utilize patented Shape Memory technology and proprietary Origami structures that are not only easy to manufacture but also outperform their counterparts in critical dimensions. Founded in 2018, DCUBED started with just a 3D printer and a two-person team. Today, they offer multiple product lines and supply leading space exploration customers in 15 countries across 4 continents.

Their success story is rooted in the frustration of their founder and CEO, Thomas Sinn, who couldn't find a suitable release device for a deployable structure experiment. Determined to find a solution, he and his team built their own, which performed flawlessly and sparked the creation of DCUBED. Over the years, DCUBED has achieved significant milestones.

They won the Innospace Masters and an EXIST Business Start-up Grant, and they have shipped their first actuators to renowned institutions such as MIT Haystack Observatory and the University of Auckland. They have also secured seed funding, won prestigious development contracts, and expanded their product portfolio. In January 2022, DCUBED successfully launched its first products into space, marking a major milestone.

As they continue to scale up production and expand internationally, they are excited to be part of the great discoveries that space exploration will bring. With a focus on sustainability and affordability, DCUBED aims to revolutionize the space industry and create a more sustainable and thriving future for space exploration
