What are the Key Points in Through Hole Slip Rings Selection?

图片
  Introduction In many devices involving rotational motion, through-hole slip rings   transmit electrical signals or power between their electrical components. However, how should we find the right slip ring? This article will give you a detailed introduction to the key points when selecting through-hole slip rings to help you make a decision.     1.  Size The through-hole size of a through-hole slip ring should be selected according to the diameter of the rotating shaft of the equipment. Generally, the through-hole diameter should be slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft to allow the shaft of the equipment to pass through the slip ring smoothly. For example, if the diameter of the rotating shaft of the equipment is 20 mm, then a slip ring with a through-hole diameter of 22 - 25 mm can be selected. We generally recommend reserving an installation gap of 0.5 - 3 mm. ByTune provides slip rings with an inner diameter of 3 to 500 mm, and the outer diameter can be provided accordin

Wha are the Benefits of Gold-Contact Slip Rings?

图片
In modern industry and technology, slip rings are used to transmit power and signals between different parts of equipment. When in use, it transmits current through 360-degree rotation, which has high requirements for the contact surface and transmission material. Among many choices, gold-contact slip rings stand out due to the use of precious metal contact materials. So, what are the benefits of such contact? Gold-to-gold Contact High Transmission Efficiency Gold, as an excellent conductor, has high conductivity and extremely low resistance. Its contact is more reliable than the contact of ordinary metal brush wires and copper rings, and can stably receive and transmit various currents, including weak current signals. This is very important for some precision instruments, such as ROV, UAV or semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Because even a tiny energy loss may affect their data accuracy. More Wear-resistant Structure During the working process of the slip ring, the rotor and st

How to Determine the Quality of Through Hole Slip Ring?

图片
Overview Learning how to determine the quality of through hole slip ring s can help us find the most suitable slip rings. It includes a number of checks and tests: Appearance Inspection : This is the most basic inspection method. We ensure that the size of the through hole slip ring meets the standard by visual inspection or using measuring tools. And after removing the damaged, deformed, and worn defective products, we strictly check according to the technical drawings. Signal Transmission Interference Test : Technicians use professional equipment such as signal generators, spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, and electrostatic discharge generators to check whether the slip ring can transmit signals stably. During this process, the through hole slip ring should not generate obvious noise, distortion, and interference. This test can ensure the accuracy of the slip ring signal in a complex electromagnetic environment. This is important for high-precision industries such as medical and aer

Slip Ring Design: What are the Key Parameters?

图片
  As a connecting component of various electromechanical devices, slip rings   can transmit power and electrical signals from a fixed structure to a rotating structure. When we design slip rings, whether in standard or custom specifications, we need to select the suitable parameters to ensure their normal operation. So, do you know what important parameters slip rings have? Electrical Parameters 1. Number Of Circuits The number of circuits of a slip ring refers to the number of independent signal channels that can be transmitted simultaneously. For example, a 10-circuit slip ring can transmit 10 different signals simultaneously. The more circuits there are, the more complex the structure of the slip ring becomes and the more difficult it is to manufacture. At the same time, it may also affect the stability of the slip ring, because more signal channels mean more potential failure points.   2. Rated Current/Voltage l Rated Current:   It refers to the maximum current allowed by the motor

  Overview Through-hole slip ring s can be seen everywhere in our lives, including industrial automation, wind turbines, medical equipment, radar equipment and other fields. This slip ring can improve the use status of various rotating equipment. So do you know what it is specifically and what functions it has? What is a Through Hole Slip Ring? Through-hole slip rings are also called hollow shaft slip rings. Similar to other slip rings, this type of slip ring also uses brushes and contacts to transmit current, signals and other data from a fixed position to a rotating position. It is characterized by a through hole in the center, so it can be directly put on the rotating shaft of the equipment and fixed for use. This also means that through-hole slip rings also leave space for other operating components, allowing pipes or cables connected to rotating parts to pass through this center hole.   How Does a Through Hole Slip Ring Work? The working principle of through-hole slip ring is rela

  Introduction The contact materials of the through hole electrical slip   ring mainly refer to its precious metals and carbon brush materials. This part is generally installed at the rotation c enter of the equipment, the end of the shaft or other positions on the shaft. They are used to establish continuous electrical connections for different devices to conduct current and signals. And, they were divided into a variety of specifications and material options. Do you know which one is the best for your equipment?   1.  Common Contact Materials (1)  Precious Metal Materials:   l Gold: The color of gold is golden yellow, the density is 19.32 g/cm3, the melting point is  1064.43℃, and it is not easy to oxidize. In the through hole electrical slip ring, gold is used as a contact material, with extremely low contact resistance in use, to ensure stable current transmission. It is highly conductive and thermally conductive, being most suitable for high-end electronic equipment and precision
