The mysteries of slip rings

By |2023-11-20T14:52:05+01:0020. November 2023|Consulting, Energy, Industry, Space|

A slip ring (in electrical engineering terms) is a method of making an electrical connection through a rotating assembly. Slip rings, also called rotary electrical interfaces, rotating electrical connectors, collectors, swivels, or electrical rotary joints, are commonly found in all rotary systems with electrical connections of sensors and receptors. They are a common building block in terrestrial and space applications, e.g. wind turbines, computer tomography scanners, solar arrays in space and many more. Tribological characterization [...]

Novel materials and products, before their final application, must undergo a series of rigorous tests to demonstrate their ability to withstand physical, chemical, and/or environmental challenges. Autoclave testing provides a comprehensive evaluation by subjecting the materials to a combination of liquid, temperature, pressure, and, when necessary, different atmospheric conditions (such as air, Ar, N2) to simulate real-world scenarios in a controlled laboratory environment. These conditions are highly effective for simulating extreme conditions and rapidly assessing [...]
