Rugged, reliable slip ring and motor solutions for critical environments

The stakes are high in defense applications. From ground vehicles to infrared cameras, these systems rely on signal and power transmission in complex environments—requiring rugged, reliable and high-quality slip rings. We have your defense needs covered.

Our Miniature Slip Rings achieve high transmission rates without ever compromising signal integrity in rotating equipment, including pan and tilt heads for cameras, infrared lasers and other sensors. Available in a range of signal combinations, these slip rings feature our advanced brush and ring design and gold-on-gold contacts—guaranteeing long service life and reducing electrical noise in critical environments.

For HD cameras and other devices requiring higher resolution and bandwidth, our HD Video Slip Rings transfer 1080p or 1080i HD-SDi video signals and achieve data rates of 3 Gbps and higher.

We also offer a variety of Brushless Servo Motors, including our HPM and EC series, which feature high torque and low voltage options for use in unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) and other battery-operated equipment. Frameless options are available for easy integration into higher-level assemblies.

Motors also include customizable windings—improving efficiency while meeting your voltage requirements—as well as integrated gear reducers, which reduce package size and lower overall costs.
