What is a turntable slip ring

The turntable is a complex modern equipment integrating optomechanical and electrical. It performs semi-physical simulation and testing in the field of aviation and aerospace, and plays a key role in the development of aircraft. It can simulate various attitude angular motions of aircraft, reproduce various dynamic characteristics of its motion, and repeatedly test the performance of the guidance system, control system and corresponding devices of the aircraft, obtain sufficient test data, and redesign and improve the system according to the data to meet the performance index requirements of the overall design of the aircraft. So what is a turntable slip ring?

Turntable slip ring refers to a conductive slip ring specially designed for use on a turntable. As a slip ring of an emerging application category, turntable slip rings can be divided into simulation turntable slip rings and test turntable slip rings according to their place of use. In different applications, the requirements of the turntable are also different, such as current, voltage, number of channels, communication and control signals. Usually in many applications, it is also necessary to transmit liquid or gas at the same time to realize the normal operation of hydraulic and pneumatic components on the turntable. For most turntables, it is necessary to transmit power supply, measurement signals, control and communication information to the turntable. At the same time, the rotation speed of the turntable is very high, sometimes reaching 20,000 RPM, so the most important thing is to ensure that the slip ring can achieve power and signal reliability and low attenuation at this high speed.

 

Turntable slip rings can provide current/signal combination solutions in applications, such as combined transmission of video, control, sensing, Ethernet, power supply, etc. They are suitable for low torque, low loss, low electrical noise, and maintenance-free environments, especially in environments with small installation space requirements, such as security monitoring, robots, total stations, test instruments, turntable slip rings, etc.
