Aerospace / Military Slip Rings

Download PDF

Modern aerospace and military industry place increasing demands on slip ring technology because of equipment advancements and environmental conditions. From aerospace precision testing platforms to mobile missile launchers, UAV camera systems to Forward-Looking-Infra-Red systems, helicopters to armed command vehicles, slip rings have been always a critical role to provide reliable power and data / signal transfer interfaces between the stationary and rotating parts.

An aerospace / military purpose slip ring assembly should be able to operate reliably in the most rugged environment, thus it is required to have high vibration and shock, wide operating temperature envelop and environmental sealing capabilities. 

Electrically, an aerospace / military purpose slip ring assembly could be challenged to meet high speed data, extremely low contact noise and resistance, EMI shielding capabilities in demanding space. AOOD meet all of these challenges effectively and economically.
