Pico-satellite’s potential use is increasingly gaining nation’s recognition. Because of its small volume and light weight, it is necessary to develop the special deployer. The key technologies of Zhejiang University Pico-Satellite Deployer (ZDPSD) are, cutter unlocking the door, conical spring driving the pico-satellite, oriented rail restricting the direction and locking shaft fixing the door. In September 2010, the two pico-satellites were launched and deployed successfully at the predetermined orbit. The paper includes designing and analyzing of the moving system, mode analyzing of the deployer and the experiments on ground and in-orbit. The key process of the development is summarized, which can be regarded as reference for the further developing.
