Miniature slip ring capsules in various circuit configurations
A slip ring capsule can be used in any electromechanical system that requires unrestrained, intermittent or continuous rotation while transferring power and / or data.
Miniature slip ring capsule assemblies economically address both critical space and weight limitations. Each assembly includes the rotor, brush blocks, frame, ball bearings and dust cover. Existing designs are available or we can custom design slip rings to meet your specific requirement.
Although originally designed for commercial uses, the miniature slip ring capsule is well suited for many military applications.
