Abstract
A method for assembling devices on a satellite structure is disclosed including attaching the devices to a first face of a plate drilled with a through-hole provided with a fluid connector, on a second face of the plate, depositing a continuous peripheral bead of polymerisable adhesive composition and depositing a plurality of discontinuous and disjointed inner beads of polymerisable adhesive composition, pressing the second face of the plate against a continuous face of the structure, performing suction so as to create a pressure differential between the plate and the structure, at least partially polymerising the polymerisable adhesive compositions so as to form adhesive joints between the plate and the structure, and interrupting the suction.
