Slip Rings, Rotary Unions and Combinations
Your benefits
High performance
GAT slip rings contribute to the unprecedented scanning speeds of ships used in seismic ocean floor mapping, allowing them to be utilized even more efficiently. GAT rotary unions ensure the fast and reliable operation of the most diverse types of winches.
Enhances data and sealing quality
GAT has specifically developed slip rings and rotary unions for marine applications. The innovative technology ensure that signals and data are transmitted reliably also in stationary mode; gases and other media are transmitted by robust GAT rotary unions fitted with purpose-made sealing units.
Cutting-edge transmission technology
The keep up with rapidly increasing data rates, our slip rings can be fitted with integrated optical rotary unions (forj) allowing data rates up to 30 Gbit/s. For ultimate contact quality, GAT slip rings have been fitted with proven gold/gold transmission technology for many years.
- POD propulsion systems
- Seismic winches and cable / umbilical reels
- Special purpose handling systems
