Integrated Wind Turbine Slip Ring Capabilities

Wind turbines require delivery of power and data signals to the rotating hub by a reliable slip ring assembly. These high-performance units must operate continuously in harsh environments, where regular maintenance and monitoring are diffiult and expensive. Moog provides rotary products that are designed to operate reliably in these rugged environments.

Moog contact materials and matching design parameters provide several options for long-lived, reliable power transfer, including a patented fiber brush technology and a carbon/metal composite brush that was custom designed for the requirements of wind turbine power transfer.
