JINPAT: Professional Supplier of Anti-Slip Rings for Drones and Handheld Gimbals

In recent years, drones and portable gimbals have become very popular electronic consumer products. As a professional gimbal supplier, JINPAT provides a wide range of products in this field, but not all drones and handheld gimbals on the market are equipped with slip rings. Let’s explore the types of drones and stabilizers that use slip rings and the types of slip rings used.

First, let’s take a look at handheld stabilizers, which are generally divided into entry-level and professional levels. Entry-level products are mainly designed to provide a stable shooting environment for smartphones. Due to the lightweight of smartphones and the flexibility of human hands, these stabilizers do not require 360-degree rotation and therefore do not require slip rings.

On the other hand, mounts equipped with slip rings are mainly aimed at the professional market and are suitable for mounting professional SLR cameras and camcorders. These professional equipment are heavy and difficult to control with one hand, especially in scenes such as movie shooting. In video shooting, the accuracy of shooting technology is very important, and framing is also crucial. In order to increase the mobility of the camera equipment, stabilizer manufacturers usually install a slip ring between the power chamber and the pivot motor, which allows the stabilizer to achieve infinite rotation of the camera, resulting in stunning special effects shots.

Therefore, most drones and gimbals equipped with slip rings on the market are aimed at professional products. As a slip ring supplier to the consumer electronics industry, JINPAT supplies millions of slip rings to this field every year. It uses LPMS series standard slip rings, covering 6 to 12 channels. The ultra-miniature slip rings have the advantages of light weight. Its weight, compact size and outstanding performance make it unique in its field. In addition to the consumer electronics industry, ultra-small slip rings are also widely used in hardware equipment and other industries.

A similar situation applies to aerial photography drones. On some low-priced aerial photography drones, the three-axis gimbal is too highly integrated with the fuselage, limiting its ability to infinitely rotate the camera. Therefore, the forward view of aerial photography is limited to a certain range, and the position of the drone needs to be constantly adjusted to capture panoramic shots. In contrast, professional drones can only be equipped with more professional aerial photography lenses, but they can also carry a gimbal. Small load and with additional features. In order to enhance flight endurance and reduce unnecessary power consumption caused by excessive movement, adding skids to the gimbal has become a cost-effective solution.
