Custom Pancake Slip Ring Design

What is a Pancake Slip Ring?

A Pancake Slip Ring is an electronic device that is mainly used to transmit power and signals between a rotating object and a stationary object. Unlike traditional Slip Rings, a Pancake Slip Ring has a more compact structure and adopts a flat disc design, which allows it to provide a stable electrical connection in a limited space. Its unique design makes it very suitable for applications that require high speed and small size, such as robots, automation equipment, aerospace, and camera equipment.

Pancake Slip Rings are sometimes also called "thin Slip Rings" or "flat slip rings". Due to their flat structure, they can effectively save space and provide high-quality electrical transmission functions.

How does a Pancake Slip Ring work?

The basic working principle of a Pancake Slip Ring is similar to that of a traditional slip ring. It transmits current from a rotating part to a stationary part through friction contact. Pancake slip rings are usually composed of multiple conductive rings and brushes. The conductive rings contact the brushes through rotation to form a circuit, allowing power or signals to be transmitted from the rotating part to the stationary part.

Specifically:

Rotating ring and brush: The rotating part of the slip ring is a disc-shaped ring, and the brush conducts current by contacting the rotating ring.

Conductive ring: These rings are usually made of highly conductive materials such as copper alloy or gold to ensure that the current remains stable during rotation.

Brush: Usually made of highly wear-resistant materials, the brush maintains contact with the rotating ring to ensure that the transmission of current will not be lost due to excessive friction.

The signals that disc slip rings can transmit include: power, data, video, audio, control signals, etc. Through the slip ring, the rotating device can ensure a stable supply of signals and power while rotating continuously.

Advantages of disc slip rings

Compact design: The disc slip ring has a compact structure and is suitable for applications with limited space.

Low friction: Compared with traditional slip rings, disc slip rings have less friction, which can reduce wear and extend service life.

High speed support: Due to its unique design, disc slip rings can support high speed operation and are suitable for high-speed moving equipment.

Durability: Disc slip rings are generally made of high-quality materials to ensure long-term stable operation.

Low resistance and low noise: High-quality disc slip rings can effectively reduce noise and resistance in signal transmission, and improve signal clarity and stability.

Application scenarios of disc slip rings

Robotics: Used in the rotating joint part of the robot to ensure stable transmission of data and power.

Automation equipment: In automated production lines, disc slip rings can ensure stable power and signal transmission between various parts of the equipment.

Camera equipment: Used for cameras or surveillance cameras to ensure stable transmission of video signals when they rotate.

Aerospace: Used for rotating equipment on aerospace equipment or aircraft to ensure stable transmission of power and signals.

Medical equipment: In some rotating medical instruments, disc slip rings can transmit power and signals.
