This milestone represents a decisive step in Spain\u2019s contribution to one of the most ambitious and large-scale scientific engineering projects of the 21st century.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The successful completion of this phase validates the developed technical design and paves the way for the manufacturing stage of the 44 sub-reflectors to be integrated into the SKA-Mid antenna array, currently under construction in South Africa. This achievement is the result of several months of close collaboration between EOSOL, COMPOXI, and the technical team at the SKA Observatory, and it highlights the advanced technological capabilities of the Spanish industrial sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sub-reflectors\u2014a critical component responsible for directing incoming signals to the receivers\u2014have a diameter of 4.5 meters and are made of composite materials with a metallized surface to ensure both mechanical stability and demanding electromagnetic performance. Each unit comprises over 100 individual parts, including six main panels and three extensions, all of which must be assembled with high precision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We emphasize the strong collaboration between COMPOXI, a company specialized in the design and manufacturing of composite structures, and EOSOL, a leading provider of engineering services for strategic sectors. This kind of synergy exemplifies the ability of the Spanish industrial sector to make substantial and effective contributions to large-scale international scientific infrastructures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The SKA Observatory, with core sites in South Africa and Australia, will host the most advanced radio telescopes on Earth, enabling the global scientific community to explore the Universe with unprecedented resolution and scope. Spain\u2019s active participation\u2014at the institutional, scientific, and industrial levels\u2014reinforces its role as a strategic partner within this intergovernmental organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is worth noting that this contract has been partially funded by the European Union through the NextGenerationEU programme, managed by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. This reflects the significant impact of public investment in research and innovation on the international visibility and competitiveness of Spain\u2019s technological capabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">About Grupo EOSOL:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The EOSOL Group is a global engineering, monitoring and technical support services company with experience in more than 40 countries around the world.
