Application advantages of fiber optic slip rings in laser scanners
Laser scanner is a common high-precision measuring equipment, which has a wide range of applications in many fields. In laser scanners, the main function of fiber optic slip rings is to transmit laser signals. This signal will change direction constantly during the scanning process, so a device that can rotate at high speed is required for transmission, and this device needs to be able to guarantee the quality of the laser signal. Fiber optic slip rings play a vital role in this process.
Advantages of fiber optic slip rings：
ﾠ ﾠ ﾠ ﾠ ﾠFiber optic slip rings have many advantages over other types of slip rings. First, it can perform high-speed rotation, and the quality of the transmitted laser signal is stable. Secondly, the optical fiber slip ring has a small volume and weight, so it can be easily installed in various equipment. In addition, the life of fiber optic slip rings is generally longer than other types of slip rings, and can reach hundreds of thousands of working hours, so frequent replacement is not required. Finally, the optical fiber slip ring does not need to be lubricated during the transmission process, so it will not pollute other equipment and is a more environmentally friendly transmission method.
Features of slip rings for laser scanners：
ﾠ ﾠ ﾠ ﾠThere are several factors to consider when designing a slip ring for a laser scanner. First, the slip ring needs to be able to withstand high-speed rotation and transmit a laser signal of stable quality. Secondly, the slip ring needs to have a long working life and stable performance. Slip rings need to have small volume and weight for easy installation and operation. Based on these requirements, slip rings designed for laser scanners often have precise structures and high-quality materials, which can ensure their reliability and stability during high-speed rotation and long-term operation.
