Slip-ring variations abound — and the advanced components come in bore sizes from half an inch to many feet in diameter — for medical-imaging machines designed to service livestock, for example. But options go beyond mere scale. So how do OEMs and design engineers choose between standard and custom options … and what are other […]
Where are slip rings used? Common markets and applications
Slip rings excel in myriad designs that include a rotating base or platform — including industrial equipment such as index tables, winders, and automated welders. Wind turbines are another key application — as are medical applications for MRI and CT imaging. Slip rings also work at the pivot point of closed-circuit security cameras. Slip rings […]
What’s the difference between electromechanical and fiber-optic slip rings?
Design engineers identify the need for a slip ring in the very first stages of the design process — as usually there are no viable alternative solutions. Of course, while engineers know near the beginning of the design process whether they need a slip ring, the slip-ring design details are usually developed and finalized with […]
Electrical power and signals through a slip ring: Where do they go?
Slip rings — also called electric swivels, collector rings, and rotary electrical joints — are electromagnetic devices of electromechanical, fiber-optic, or even non-contacting inductance and capacitance subtypes that transmit power and data signals between a rotating machine segment and a stationary segment. Of course, power transmission is associated with higher voltage and higher current than […]
Webinar: Slip ring basics, design variations, and new modes of connectivity
This webinar was presented live on Tuesday, December 18, 2018. Click below to watch it on demand. In this webinar, we briefly review the basics of slip rings and outline their various design iterations. Then we explain how slip rings integrate into automated motion designs — and use several examples from industrial automation, robotics, wind turbines,…
