A slip ring capsule can be used in any electromechanical system that requires unrestrained, occasional 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.

These slip rings can be configured with spacing between rings of 0.015 inch and brush diameters no larger than a human hair. Existing designs are available or we can custom design slip rings to meet your specific requirement. For more information about how Moog's miniature slip ring capsules can be tailored to fit your specific application, contact our slip ring experts.
