Slip Ring for Electrical Industry
With an application requiring a high performance material, a
manufacturer of wind turbine components contacted Woodland Plastics regarding
our thermoset molding expertise to thermoset injection mold slip rings and
brush holders out of a material resistant to high temperatures and providing
electrical performance characteristics such as a high dielectric strength and
low arc/track resistance. After
reviewing material options, the customer decided on a fiberglass reinforced
phenolic molding compound, RX 655.
The slip ring component shown above is thermoset injection
molded in a 150-ton press before being post-baked, or annealed, for 8
hours. After the post-bake operation, parts
are deflashed, given a final inspect by quality, and finally packed for
customer shipment.
