Rapid Development with Seasoned, Qualified Hardware

We think outside the box to develop innovative ways to address our customer’s needs.  Our strong experience in the industry allows us to create project plans that are achievable, and to manage large, complex programs through the complete life-cycle, from concept to the supply of spares.

Because we have a deep base of flight qualified, proven products, we can rapidly develop a system with seasoned flight hardware.  We’re experts with high-pressure, corrosive and challenging fluids such as nitrous oxide, hydrogen, hydrogen peroxide, liquid oxygen and cryogenic temperatures.

We offer a full line of hydraulic and pneumatic valves, regulators, relief valve, pilot operated fluid controls and more for mission critical systems.

Launch Vehicle Motion and Flow Controls

Marotta Controls has a proven history of exceptional performance and a wide variety of flight qualified motion and flow control hardware for launch vehicles, from human-rated vehicles to commercial launchers, including today's low-cost EELV.

Critical Functions / Critical Fluids

Our motion and flow controls perform critical functions for main propulsion systems, booster and upper stage engines, as well as reaction/attitude control systems and environmental control systems, and is designed to work with a variety of difficult and corrosive fluids, gasses and propellants, including: 

 GH2, GN2, GHe, N2O, GO2, LOX, H2O2, RP-1, LN2, N2H4, Xe
