TOKYO, Japan, October 13, 2026 – Axelspace Corporation (“Axelspace”), announced that it has commenced operations at its new development center as of today.
Functions of the New Development Center and Future Initiatives
Axelspace operates two businesses: AxelLiner, which provides satellite development and operation services to help customers realize their space missions, and AxelGlobe, which delivers Earth observation data through Axelspace’s own optical satellite constellation. As multiple satellite projects progress, Axelspace is working to ensure consistent quality and strengthen its production capabilities.
Through this relocation, environmental testing functions previously conducted at separate locations have been consolidated, enabling satellite design, manufacturing, and testing to be carried out at a single site. This integrated development structure is improving quality consistency while strengthening the production framework in collaboration with its manufacturing partners.
The new Development Center in Shinkiba comprises two facilities: one for design and development, equipped with office space and meeting rooms, and another for manufacturing and testing, equipped with cleanrooms and environmental testing equipment. Each facility will operate according to its respective functions.
Going forward, the Development Center and the headquarters in Nihonbashi will strengthen information sharing and collaboration, drawing on their respective roles and expertise. Through this collaboration, Axelspace will steadily advance technology and business development while responding to the increasingly diverse needs for space utilization.
