Product Overview

Ingiant at a Glance

This is a rotating unit with the envelope you specify, carrying the circuit count you specify across a continuously rotating joint. Power and signals cross the joint through sliding precious metal contacts, so the moving assembly can turn indefinitely in either direction. On this model sealing is rated IP51 Structural material Aluminum alloy, rated speed is 0~300RPM.

Key Benefits

What This Model Gives the Machine

Unlimited rotation without cable wind-up

The rotating side keeps its electrical connection through continuous 360° turning, so the machine never has to stop and unwind. Rated speed is 0~300RPM.

Maintenance-free contact system

Precious metal Technical Parameter Number of channels According to customer’s actual requi contact pairs are designed to run without lubrication or servicing for the rated life, so there is nothing to schedule on this axis. Dynamic resistance variation stays <10mΩ.

Built to your installation envelope

The mounting interface, lead exit and connector termination are set against your drawing.

Sealed to IP51 Structural material Aluminum alloy

Housing and seals are matched to the environment so dust, splash or washdown does not reach the contact surfaces.

Backed by a 12 month warranty

12 months from date of sale; free repair or replacement for quality problems not caused by human damage

Who It Is For

Engineers Who Specify This Part

Builders of inspection and subsea systems, radar and antenna positioners, filling and packaging lines, gimbals and pan-tilt platforms, and semiconductor and test equipment.

Application scenarios

Problems It Solves

Three Failures It Removes

Failure 1

Rotation limited to ±180° forces an unwind move into every cycle, and that time is lost on every part the machine makes.

Failure 2

A rotating joint that is not sealed for its environment lets dust or wash water reach the contact surfaces, and the symptom looks like an electrical fault.

Failure 3

Fitting a rotating connector after the mechanical design is frozen usually means cutting into the envelope somewhere it was not planned.

Manufacturing and Quality Control

How the Unit Is Built and Checked

Machining runs on the in-house CNC centre across roughly 6000 m² of research and production space, and assembly is done by the production team in Jiujiang.

Before despatch each unit is checked for insulation resistance, insulation strength, dynamic resistance variation and functional signal performance, using the test equipment and procedures held under the ISO 9001 and GJB9001C quality systems.

Comparison

How It Compares With the Other Formats

The alternative formats are the capsule, the through bore and the separate rotor and brush assembly. Which one is right depends on whether anything has to pass through the centre of the axis and how much space is left around it.

Use Guide

Fitting and Commissioning

Mount the stator, not the load

Fix the stator to the frame through the flange or the anti-rotation arm and couple the rotor to the rotating part. The slip ring must never be used as a bearing — the machine's own bearing carries the load.

Respect the lead route

Leave a service loop at both ends and keep the bend radius above the cable's own minimum. Most field failures start at a lead that was pulled straight.

Separate power and signal runs

Route the power leads and the signal leads apart from each other after they leave the unit, and ground the shield at one end only.

Commission at low speed

Rated speed is 0~300RPM. Turn the assembly by hand first, check continuity on every circuit, then run up to speed and confirm the signal quality before the machine goes into production.

FAQ

About Ingiant

Is IP51 Structural material Aluminum alloy enough for my application?

IP51 Structural material Aluminum alloy is the rating on this build. Tell INGIANT the real exposure — dust, splash, washdown, outdoor weather or immersion — and the sealing grade is set against it, with options available up to IP68.

How long does delivery take?

Standard products ship in 7–15 days. Simple customised products take 10–20 days and complex customised products take 15–40 days. The delivery port is Jiujiang, China Mainland.

Can this model be modified for my machine?

Yes. Send the rotating speed, the installation type and size, the circuit count, the voltage and current per ring, the signal types and their parameters, the operating temperature and the IP requirement, and the unit is redesigned around them.
