•Burn recession tests of ablators using oxy-acetylene flame and plasma-jet show that the ReWiG sensor is able to provide a distinguishable signal as the recession proceeds
•The use of a grid/foil combination can offer reliable temperature compensation enabling better definition of the recession signal

Arquimea suggests a new HDRA (REACT) base on a novel SMA material (SMARQ) with increased temperature performance capabilities able to overcome the current temperature limitations of similar devices. REACT can work in the range of temperatures of -60ºC to 120ºC with a minimum preload of 100N. Other important advantages of the proposed technology are its lightweight, high force to weight ratio and low volume, which makes it especially attractive in space applications.

Arquimea suggests a new Pin Puller base on a novel SMA material (SMARQ) with increased temperature performance capabilities able to overcome the current temperature limitations of similar devices. The European Pin Puller can work in the range of temperatures of -50ºC to 125ºC with a minimum pull force of 100N. Other important advantages of the proposed technology are its lightweight, high force to weight ratio and low volume, which makes it especially attractive in space applications.
