What is a conductive slip ring? Conductive slip ring is also called the collector ring, also known as rotary joint, rotating electrical interfaces, industrial slip ring, collecting ring, reflux, coil, conductive ring, brush, commutator, adapter, belong to the category of electrical contact sliding connection application, it is to realize the two images of the relative rotating mechanism, data signal and power transmission precision transmission device. Especially suitable for unlimited continuous rotation, and the need to transfer power or data from a fixed position to a rotating position.

In the process of electrical design, when the mechanical part rotates indefinitely in 360 degrees, the wires need to be connected to the rotating parts, and the electrical engineer will encounter the wire winding problem. At this time, he needs an electric rotary connector, commonly known as a conductive slip ring, to transmit the power and signal rotating connection.

What are the classifications of conductive slip rings? Conductive slip ring is mainly divided into two kinds, one is according to the conductive medium, divided into electrical slip ring, optical fiber slip ring, mercury slip ring and so on, the second kind is divided according to the slip ring structure, there are holes (also known as hollow shaft slip ring), cap, disc slip ring and so on.

In addition, from the shape of the slip ring, there are mainly 3 kinds, one is cap slip ring, one is through the hole slip ring, and one is disc slip ring.

1, what is cap type conductive slip ring?

What is cap slip ring? As the name suggests, because its shape looks like a hat, so the industry called cap type slip ring, this mainly from appearance to distinguish, hat, English name is cap, so often abbreviated in C to identify this type of product, because this kind of slip ring is used in high-speed ball and yuntai, monitor head place more. All it is also known as a high-speed ball slip ring, cap type conductive slip ring is characterized by a fixed outer layer, the inner axis of the rotation of a structure, and the hollow shaft series is just the opposite of a structure.

2, what is called through the hole conductive slip ring?

Via slip ring, also known as slip ring hollow shaft, and the scope of the use of the slip ring is mainly is the need to restrict the continuous rotation from a fixed position to turn the position of the transmission power or data, manufacture process and principle of it and other slip ring, brush by beam and touch point contact, to current, signal, such as data transmitted from a fixed position to the rotational position. The basic technical parameters of through-hole slip ring mainly include outer diameter, inner diameter, length, number of rings, voltage, current, maximum speed and so on. In the technical parameters of the through hole slip ring, the length is variable and can be customized arbitrarily, while the outer diameter, inner diameter, there are some standard sizes in the industry.

3. What is disc slip ring?

Disk slip ring is also called disk conductive slip ring, disk collector ring, cake slip ring, as the name implies because of its flat like a plate.

The conductive slip ring can transmit all the current popular medium and low frequency signals, bus control signals, etc. Conductive slip ring Can be used for any tiny voltage of rotator, PLC control, digital/analog video, digital audio, high frequency, EMF, thermocouple, and the Can - Bus, Profibus, RS422, RS485, gigabit Ethernet, weight sensor signal and power connection.
