Maintenance-Free Slip Ring Solution for SMT Equipment in Harsh Environments

In the competitive surface mount technology (SMT) industry, equipment reliability, reduced maintenance, and efficient power transmission are critical. For South American customers, where environmental conditions are harsh and cost control is critical, having a rugged slip ring can significantly reduce downtime and increase production efficiency.


That’s why JINPAT developed the LPR-6H and LPR-8H series of pin contact slip rings, designed for applications such as SMT placement machines that require hydraulic or pneumatic flow, high electrical capacity, and continuous 360° rotation.

Key Features of LPR-6H / LPR-8H Series:

  • Advanced Fiber Brush Technology

  • Multiple contact points per brush bundle

  • Low contact force = minimal wear

  • No lubrication = maintenance-free

  • Suitable for dusty, humid, or high-vibration environments

  • Options for coaxial/data cables, additional circuitry

  • Collar or flange mounting available

  • Pin-type connectors for easy installation

  • Continuous operation up to 300 rpm


Application Spotlight: SMT Pick-and-Place Machines

Pick-and-place machines in electronics assembly rely on smooth rotary motion while transmitting power, control signals, and sometimes pneumatic pressure through the same rotating unit. A traditional slip ring might wear out quickly or require frequent servicing.

The JINPAT LPR Series is engineered to solve this with:

  • Reliable 360° rotation of power and signals

  • Fiber brush contacts that don’t degrade over time

  • Flexible mechanical integration

This results in lower maintenance costs, reduced machine downtime, and longer equipment service life — key concerns for manufacturers throughout Latin America.

JINPAT has delivered slip ring solutions to over 50 countries, with a growing presence in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Mexico.
