Electric Slip Ring

An Electric Slip Ring is a rotary electrical connector. It allows uninterrupted power or signal transfer between two stationary points. It is also known as an electric Rotary Joint, power swivel, or Electrical Rotary Joint. Electric slip rings are usually composed of a metal ring with several brush contacts on the inner circumference. And there are one or more pairs of contacts for power or signals on the outer circumference. The metal ring can be rigid or flexible, depending on the application.

An electric slip ring is an electromechanical device that allows the transmission of electrical power and signals from a stationary to a rotating structure. It consists of an electrically conductive rotating disc or ring, with a number of electrical contacts (or "slots") on its surface. The contacts are connected to external circuits, enabling the passage of power and/or data from the stationary to the rotating structure. Slip rings are also used in generators, where they allow the passage of current from the rotor to the stator.

A Flat Disc Electrical Slip Ring is one kind of electric slip ring, it has many advantages: simple construction, small size, low cost, easy installation, and maintenance. It is widely used in various fields such as machine tools, textile machinery, printing machinery, packaging machinery, medical equipment, and aerospace equipment.

A 360-degree rotating Conductive Slip Ring is also called a hollow shaft slip ring or hollow conduct. It has an opening in the center that allows a shaft to pass through, making it ideal for rotating applications. Slip rings are often used in medical equipment, robotics, and manufacturing assemblies where rotation is required. This type of slip ring can handle large currents and voltages while providing a continuous electrical connection.
