Iran develops advanced Cryogenic, space-simulator technologies

Iran firm unveils rare ultra-cold technologies at Iran-Made Exhibition.

An Iranian knowledge-based company has developed advanced ultra-cold and space-simulation technologies, capabilities possessed by only a handful of countries worldwide, marking a significant milestone in Iran’s high-precision scientific and aerospace industries.

Mahris Sazan Pishtaz, a firm specializing in cryogenic technologies, unveiled three advanced products at the Iran-Made Exhibition, two of which were introduced publicly for the first time and are considered rare not just in West Asia but globally.

Cryogenics refers to technologies operating at temperatures below minus 150 degrees Celsius, a field in which the company has developed systems reaching far more extreme ranges, Parviz Zauroni, an adviser to the company’s chief executive, said.

Among the products is a domestically manufactured space simulator capable of simultaneously generating a vacuum and reproducing extreme temperature conditions, ranging from below minus 200 degrees Celsius to above plus 200 degrees Celsius.

Zauroni said existing foreign models can typically combine only two of these three functions, while systems that offer all three are available in large, impractical sizes and are costly.

The Iranian-built simulator allows engineers to test satellite components and other space hardware under real space conditions, including vacuum environments and sharp thermal fluctuations, he added.

The second newly unveiled product is an "ultra-cold cooling device" operating at the milli-Kelvin scale, "a highly specialized technology used in quantum computing, aerospace research, and advanced physics experiments."

Zauroni said only a few developed countries, including the United States, Germany, and Italy, possess comparable capabilities.

“This product is entirely Iranian,” he said, adding that all stages from engineering design and technological development to manufacturing were carried out by domestic specialists without foreign investment.

Zauroni said the locally produced systems offer significant cost advantages over foreign equivalents, describing them as both competitive and affordable.

The third product showcased at the exhibition was a "vacuum cryopump," a more widely used device that creates vacuum conditions through ultra-cold temperatures.

He said the technology serves as an alternative to mechanical and hydraulic pumps and has been used for years in hospitals, particularly for MRI machines, as well as in laboratories, universities, and research centers.

“We have had extensive and continuous sales of the product over the past 10 to 15 years,” Zauroni stated.
