Good Morning ,
We have a new packaging machine that have Slip Rings . We are using the Slip Rings for a rotary jaw assembly that has heaters installed. We don't have much problem with the heaters , because of the higher voltage and
current I imagine ,but we consistently have problems with our Type J Thermocouples.
- Have any of you had issues with Type J , or any other type of
Thermocouple not reading consistently , loosing contact , etc.?
- Would a RTD work better on a Slip Ring ?
- Would there be any better material for Slip Ring Bands or brushes more
suited for Thermocouples ?
- I imagine a gritty cookie dust would cause issues , in an open Slip Ring
also ? LOL
Thanks so much experience and advice.
