Additionally, the company has provided gyroscopes, propellant walls, and parts, as well as sensors. In preparation for the upcoming soft landing on the moon's surface next month, the company has also manufactured certain links and components for the wheel mechanism of the Moon Lander.
According to Rajasekhar, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has made specific modifications to the vehicle lander following the partial failure of its soft landing during the Chandrayaan-2 mission in 2019.
He further explained that the newly developed components underwent multiple testing phases before being incorporated into the space mission. Over the past two years, more than 150 technicians have worked tirelessly day and night to manufacture over 50,000 critical components required for the lunar mission.
