Slip Ring

Specialized electromechanical devices that allow the continuous transmission of power and electrical signals from a stationary source to a rotating structure.

Moog | Industrial Slip Rings

Moog is the gold standard for high-performance slip rings, with over 10,000 designs ranging from miniature capsules to large-diameter through-bore units. They are sourced for their patented Fiber Brush Technology, which allows for multiple points of contact per circuit, leading to extremely low electrical noise and a maintenance-free service life.

AC6023

Model Number: AC6023-12

Up to 24 circuits; 2A per circuit; speeds up to 250 rpm; gold-on-gold contacts.

Key Technical Specifications:

  • Uses gold-plated rings and gold alloy brushes to ensure ultra-low contact resistance and minimal electrical noise, making it ideal for sensitive video and sensor signals.

  • Available with optional IP-rated seals to protect the internal contacts from dust and light moisture in factory environments.

AC6098

Model Number: AC6098-12

4-inch unobstructed bore; up to 72 signal/24 power rings; up to 50A per circuit.

Key Technical Specifications:

  • Features multiple fiber contact points per ring, which eliminates the need for lubrication and prevents the buildup of wear debris that can cause signal interference.

  • The 4-inch through-bore provides a central path for hydraulic or pneumatic lines, or for mounting directly onto a drive shaft.

Schleifring | Industrial Rotary Joints

Schleifring is a pioneer in contactless data and power transmission. They are the primary choice for applications requiring extreme data speeds (Gigabit Ethernet) or very high rotational speeds where mechanical brushes would wear out too quickly. Their modular systems are frequently sourced for high-end medical imaging and advanced robotics.

SR085 (Modular)

Model Number: SR085-25-04

Two-chamber design; load up to 25A; supports fieldbus (Profibus/CANopen) up to 12 Mbit/s.

Key Technical Specifications:

  • Physically separates power and signal channels into different internal chambers to prevent electrical interference (crosstalk) and ensure signal integrity.

  • Uses an asymmetrical brush design with double contact surfaces, guaranteeing a continuous connection even in high-vibration machinery.

GigaCAP®

Model Number: 7KM000022

Capacitive data transmission; speeds up to 10 Gbit/s; zero mechanical wear on data channels.

Key Technical Specifications:

  • Utilizes capacitive coupling for data transmission, allowing for 10 Gbit/s speeds without any physical contact, leading to an almost infinite service life for data paths.

  • The contactless design is naturally resistant to electromagnetic interference, making it the perfect choice for high-speed Ethernet in noisy industrial environments.
