deltaVision has secured funding to expand production of spacecraft fluidic systems, accelerate the development of in-orbit refuelling technologies and support the industrialisation of its manufacturing operations.
Munich-based deltaVision, a manufacturer of fluidic systems for launch vehicles, satellites, lunar landers and orbital servicing spacecraft, has raised €10.2 million in its first funding round to expand production and accelerate the development of technologies supporting in-orbit refuelling. The round was led by KT Ventures and Valemount Capital, with participation from Futury Capital, private industrial family offices and additional investors through a newly established investment vehicle.
Founded in 2022, deltaVision develops valves, pumps, pressure regulators and other fluidic systems that control propellants, pressurants and other fluids used in spacecraft and launchers. As demand for these components continues to outpace supply, the company is scaling production with manufacturing processes designed to improve reliability and reduce lead times.
The company serves more than 60 customers across four continents, ranging from startups to established aerospace companies and space agencies. Among its programmes is the European Space Agency’s Argonaut lunar lander, for which deltaVision is supplying around 50 products, including closed-loop pressure regulation subsystems.
Alongside increasing production capacity to 5,000 valves and other propulsion components annually, deltaVision is advancing a modular technology stack for orbital refuelling. The company is developing fluidic couplers, utility interfaces and integrated refuelling modules designed to enable spacecraft servicing, propellant storage and fluid transfer in orbit.
Alex Plebuch, CEO and co-founder of deltaVision, said the company is focused on scaling production to meet growing market demand, while supporting the development of an open and interoperable in-orbit services ecosystem through technologies that enable spacecraft to connect and transfer propellant and other fluids.
The funding will support the expansion of manufacturing capacity, further industrialisation of the business and the development of integrated fluidic systems. The company also plans to expand research and production through its newly established French subsidiary and establish valve manufacturing capacity in the United States.
