Maintenance/Overhaul

Aerodyn stocks spare components for all slip rings in services and can offer rapid repair and overhaul service for our products. Basic overhaul would include disassembly, inspection, cleaning, retension of brushes, reassembly, and spin test of the slip ring. If required, bearings, brushes, and seals are replaced. Typically, a rotor will last through several brush sets before requiring replacement. Rotors can also be regrooved to reestablish new contact wear surface.

Typical life expectancy of the slip ring, before brush replacement, is 100 million revolutions. Aerodyn Engineering can repair and overhaul many older designs of slip rings. We have experience with virtually all high speed slip rings used in the last 40 years and can provide rebuild and overhaul support for these units.
