Types of Slip Rings That You May Not know

      From industrial field to the entertainment world, slip rings are the heart of technological equipment used in various industries. With the advancement and development in technology, the use of slip rings is becoming deeper and wider. Also, the demands of slip rings are increasing year by year because it is a very important component that gives a 360 degrees continuous rotating support to the machines. The slip rings make the move of devices free and also make it work more efficiently.

      As technology has advanced, many slip ring manufacturers have developed new and latest types of slip rings that help the industries to work effectively. Some of the slip rings are detailed below:

pancake slip ring -
