It achieves the highest power density of any solution on the market, with a maximum end-to-end efficiency of 91%.

The manufacturer of industrial wireless power devices announced the successful trial of the Proxi-Ring 480, a contactless slip ring that provides wireless power and data to pitch-control systems in wind turbines. The Proxi-Ring 480 is said to make wind-energy generation more cost-effective by increasing uptime and reliability and eliminating costs of maintaining and replacing mechanical…

Industrial designers, engineers, and manufacturers in industries that employ machinery with rotating parts such as wind turbines and radar now have a new way to avoid critical downtime that occurs from failed electrical and mechanical connectors. Mechanical slip rings, through-hole slip rings, and high-current slip rings often limit designers’ and manufacturers’ ability to power systems…

Wireless sliprings from PowerbyProxi are based on inductively coupled power transfer technology. Inductive-power transfer applies the scientific principle of electromagnetic inductance. The patented Proxi-Wave lets these sliprings achieve high efficiencies by using wireless power transfer that can harmonize itself in the field. This makes the systems resistant to changes in realworld environmental conditions and load…
