The ExoMars Entry, Descent and Landing Demonstrator Module Structural Model mounted on the Multishaker at ESA's European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, at the completion of Y-axis sinusoidal vibration testing.

Six metal brackets, three of which can be seen here, also compensate for the mass of items not present in the SM.

The SM consists of all the structural components of the spacecraft, with the instruments, electronics boxes and other non-structural hardware represented by mass dummies. It is 2.4 m in diameter, 1.8 m high and weighs about 600 kg.
