Application of long-life conductive slip rings in intelligent articulated arms

Intelligent joint coordinate measuring machine, also known as "flexible coordinate measuring arm" or "portable CMM, or PCMM", is a three-dimensional measurement method developed at the end of the eighties of the last century, and was gradually used in industrial countries in Europe and the United States in the nineties of the last century. In recent years, with the improvement of accuracy and stability, the application of joint coordinate measuring machines has developed rapidly. It is a new technology-intensive, economical and applicable intelligent joint coordinate measuring machine, which adopts the open-chain full-rotation pair structure, completely abandons the platform and guide rail of the traditional CMM, so that the weight and volume of the product are greatly reduced, the product price is greatly reduced, the convenience of use and the requirements for the use of the environment are greatly improved, light and simple, good quality and low price. Moreover, it can make the coordinate measuring machine out of the laboratory and into the workshop and the field, which is a revolutionary scientific and technological achievement of measurement technology.

Understand what is the intelligent articulated arm, let's understand its working principle, the above picture is the only articulated arm developed by our customer, which is generally composed of a base, a telescopic arm, a rotating head, and a probe. The base and the entire robot can be rotated 360° relative to each other, and the rotating head can also rotate 360° infinitely. On the one hand, it is possible to measure and depict more accurately and freely. 360° unrestricted rotation is the primary solution to the problem of power and signal transmission, conductive slip ring is a kind of rotating connector, which tirelessly rotates and rotates to provide power and control signals to the manipulator accurately, and accurately completes every instruction issued by the controller.
The following is a special slip ring for the articulated arm specially developed by our company for users. Its characteristics are: the use of military materials and manufacturing technology, stable performance, to help the equipment more accurate transmission of signals; Ultra-long life, high protection, slip ring maintenance-free; Compact appearance, compact structure, light weight, easy installation; Smooth operation, low torque, very low electrical noise, low resistance, no friction. Modular handling for easy installation!
