What are the types of conductive slip rings?

A conductive slip ring is an electromechanical component that transmits current and data signals

A conductive slip ring is an electromechanical component that transmits current and data signals from a stationary device to a rotating device. It is also called a conductive slip ring, a collector ring, a rotating electrical joint or slip ring connector. It is especially suitable for applications where unlimited, continuous or intermittent rotation is required, while large-capacity data and signals need to be transmitted from a fixed position to a rotating position.It improves mechanical performance, simplifies system operation, and prevents the wire from causing bending sprains during rotation.

There are many types of slip rings, and there are different classifications depending on the structure, the field of use, and the transmission medium.

1.According to the slip ring structure, it is divided into the capsule slip ring, hollow shaft slip ring, split slip ring, pancake slip ring.

2.According to the transmission medium (signal), it is divided into high-definition slip ring, high-speed slip ring, Ethernet slip ring, USB slip ring, profit-bus slip ring, fiber rotary joint, etc.

3.According to the function of use, it is divided into explosion-proof slip ring, waterproof slip ring, large size slip ring, long life slip ring, high and low temperature slip ring, etc.
