What is a slip ring do?

A slip ring passes electrical signals and power across a rotating interface using sliding electrical contacts. These contacts are typically a rotating ring and a stationary brush, or wiper, that slides along the ring surface during rotation.

The world of industry and electromechanics is always in motion. More precisely, in rotary motion (rotating consumers). Wind turbines, medical technology, crane technology, stage technology, video cameras, screens, data-driven automation, data transmission and robotics – standstill is the death of efficiency and innovation. None of these industries function without the transmission of power and data on continuous, unrestricted or intermittent rotation.

Therefore, reliable, maintenance-free and loss-free transmission of data, power and electrical signals between the individual stationary and rotating components is required. That’s were electromechanical devices come into play that allow that kind of transmission, regardless of the application or kind of rotation: slip rings. This may be components rotating incomplete revolutions in one direction continuously or rotating incomplete revolutions in either direction. Or they oscillate through parts of a revolution, depending on the application.
