Overview
Slip Ring Design and Manufacturing
Michigan Scientific Slip Rings set the industry standard for durability and efficiency of design. Our world-class design, manufacturing, and testing facility enables us to produce high quality devices for the most demanding test environments, whether in the field or a test cell. Because they reliably provide high-quality signal transmission in a range of dynamic conditions, our standard and custom slip rings and accessories are the preferred choice for applications requiring an instrumentation-grade device for measurement, control, or low power transfer.
What makes Michigan Scientific a Trusted Slip Ring Supplier?
Primarily used in rigorous vehicular testing, Michigan Scientific slip rings are designed to provide dependable, instrumentation-quality signal connection in a wide range of dynamic test environments. In many applications, it is important to know the rotational speed and position of the part being tested. Since the rotor of a slip ring rotates directly with the rotating portion of the application, the slip ring provides an ideal platform for the installation of rotational sensors. We have chosen and developed encoders, resolvers and encoder electronic packages that are both accurate and durable. Through imaginative design and attention to detail, we package these sensors within the housings of several of our slip rings, creating durable compact assemblies.
How do I know that a Michigan Scientific Slip Ring will work for my application?
Since our incorporation in 1960, Michigan Scientific has produced slip rings for a wide variety of applications. From industrial automation, aerospace, and heavy construction applications to agricultural equipment testing and high-performance motorcycle development, our slip rings consistently meet the demands of the most challenging applications.
