The SPINNER team
Fiber optic rotary joints (FORJs) are powerful tools for transmission at high data rates via rotating interfaces. Such applications typically require the conversion of electronic data into light signals on either or both sides of the rotating junction. Powering the electro-optical converter at the rotating side is crucial in these cases.
To solve this problem, we have designed a P-FORJ (P stands for power) that transmits light signals and electric power at the same time. Any desired combination of high-quality SPINNER FORJ and slip ring can be easily configured to suit your application.
Fiber Optic Rotary Joint with Slipring – P-FORJDownload Brochure (2 MB)
We offer you the smallest P-FORJ now available in the market. It enables high data transmission rates while only requiring seven millimeters of free space around its rotational axis. And if its slip ring wears out, it’s designed for very easy replacement to let you take full advantage of the exceptionally long life and reliability that characterize all SPINNER fiber-optic rotary joints.
Configure your product
We supply our P-FORJs together with standard lengths of fiber and electric cable. If our regular portfolio doesn’t meet your requirements, please don’t hesitate to contact us – you can count on us to offer you a viable solution.
Motor-driven hybrids, encoders, and RF rotary joints are also available. Please also ask about our specially designed and tested fiber-optic multiplexers for combining with our P-FORJ.
