To substitute human labor, robots are introduced into wide arranges of field and ripples excellent effects. As a house hold name in the slip ring industry, JINPAT Electronics has developed numerous rotary joints and slip rings to serve the rotary transmission demands in the robots. From our current cases, most slip rings and rotary joints are applied in the traditional manufacturing industrial robots. With development of the technology, robots also step into other niche fields, surgical robots are the most typical. JINPAT Electronics has rotary conductive solutions for surgical robots.

Different from industrial robots that enforce high-intensity and repetitive labor, surgical robots need to assist surgeons to complete high-precision surgery in a short time. Some robots are to operate independently to move the patients and to complete certain checks. The works are relatively light but meticulous. For instances, slip rings are installed on surgical robots for cardiovascular surgery and treatment. The robots are expected to enable high definition video signal transmission and high-precision operation which help the surgeons to make diagnosis and operate on the small organs. The slip rings related are integrated models with capacity of transmitting SDI high definition video signals above 2K.

JINPAT Electronics as a private-ran and historical slip ring manufacturer keeps standing in the frontier of slip ring technology. And plus the well-earned reputation and large amount of funding on R&D, JINPAT Electronics has developed tens of slip rings and rotary joints for AI medical robots. JINPAT slip rings are applied in the orthopedic treatment robots, abdomen endoscope therapy robots and cardiovascular surgery robots. These slip rings are power and electrical integrated, and some are photoelectrical integrated models.
With a further investment in medical robots, medical robots with brand new functions are developed. And JINPAT also speeds up its R&D process to meet the needs in the market. Contact JINPAT Electronics for more efficient and reliable slip ring solutions.

Fiber optic rotary joints, also known as optical slip rings, are a special type of slip rings that transmit optical signals. Fiber optic rotary joints featuring high transmission rate, long life span and high reliability, are widely applied in different applications. JINPAT Electronics, as a pioneer in the slip ring industry, has accumulated lots of experiences in slip ring R&D. And JINPAT has been stepping ahead in doing independent R&Ds on optical slip ring. JINPAT Electronics is now capable of producing fiber optic rotary joints in bulks. JINPAT is also capable of producing single mode optical slip rings within 5 channels and multi-mode optical slip rings within 10 channels in a relatively small scale.

Back to our theme today, fiber optic rotary joints are actually special optical components with high precision processing and high technology. Therefore, the cost of the optical slip ring is comparatively higher than the general slip rings. And they are mostly adopted in high-end electronic products. One of the most everyday application is on under water robots. To gain in-time control of the ROVs and transmit the signals, an optical slip ring is installed within the system.
At present, the fiber optic rotary joints are mostly applied in the optical power processing devices. The optical slip rings are favored by laser device manufacturers. And most are multi-channel optical slip rings. As for devices that enable laser cutting and multi-axis processing, a multi-channel single-mode optical rotary joint is preferred. Aside from laser processing equipment, many industrial processing facilities demand optical slip rings to replace traditional electrical slip rings. For instance, some heavy industry machines that work in dust-threaten environment need optical slip ring to provide a safer signal transmission. And in the marine construction field, devices like undersea ROVs and marine winches also adopt fiber optic rotary joints to enable rotary transmission of data and signals. Meanwhile, an integration with electrical slip ring is better.
In facts, optical slip rings are less seen in the everyday life. However, for high-end surveillance cameras, an optical slip ring is a better solution for its real-time signal transmission and high transmission rate.
With the development of optical technology and lowering cost, fiber optic rotary joints are facing broader applications. JINPAT keeps making research of such products. We provided innovative rotary solutions that surprise our clients. Consult JINPAT for more efficient and endurable slip ring solutions.

JINPAT Electronics has the technical strength to develop and produce slip rings whose single channel capacity exceed 1000A.

JINPAT names slip rings with single channel capacity over 50A as Large Current Slip Rings, and codes them as LPA. Over 20 years since establishment, JINPAT Electronics has developed around 1,000 large current slip rings for amusement facilities. JINPAT has accumulated plenty of experience in large current slip rings. Though slip rings with single channel capacity over 1000A only take up a small number, JINPAT Electronic is now capable of producing slip rings with single channel capacity up to 4000A and has several successful cases. And with further efforts, JINPAT can develop those up to 6000A and even 8000A.

As early as in 2014, JINPAT Electronics, in order to test our high voltage and weak electrical signal integrated slip ring, developed a large current slip ring with 3 1000A channels, 1 ground lead and a weak electrical signal module. To adapt to the demanding environment, JINPAT enhance its protection grading up to IP55. There is a built-in heater that initiates when temperature drops down to below 5°C and stops when above 25°C. It was a milestone marking JINPAT Electronics’ breakthrough in developing large current high voltage slip rings. And this large current slip ring set the basic frame of the series.

The recent large current slip ring with single channel capacity over 1000A also inherit such structure, and is fit for harsh environment. Its protection grading reaches IP66. And some large current slip rings that designed for dust environment are explosion-proof models.

General integration is with weak electrical signal module, JINPAT also provides custom integration with optical slip rings. Large current slip ring with integrated optical module enhances hugely in terms of transmission capacity. An integrated solution with single mode fiber optic rotary joint can travel several hundred meters further than weak electrical signal and power integrated model.

LPA000-031000-01PE-2005-FO06 is a typical large current slip ring with single channel capacity over 1000A. It consists of the large current module with a working voltage up to 690V, the weak electrical signal module and an optical slip ring module with 6 channels. The protection grading is IP66. From its coding, you can also see this slip ring with 1 pneumatic channel.
