Slip Rings 102: Fiber Brush Contacts – A Little More Detail
Fiber Brush contacts were developed to address increasing demands for higher performance. As technology has advanced, so has the need for faster signal speed, faster rotational speed, higher power, longer life, less maintenance and vacuum operation. Some of the most challenging applications are:
- CT Scan systems
- High speed testing

- Robotic welding systems
- High-speed, in-line inspection systems
- Radar platforms
- Sensor gimbals
- Shipboard communication systems
- Subsea communications
- Wind Energy generation
MOOG Components group has just released this video of their Fiber Brush Technology to give you a better understanding of the product features.
