Latest company case about Fiber Optic Slip Ring Solutions for Medical Imaging and Diagnostic Equipment

In modern medical imaging and diagnostic systems, the demand for higher resolution, faster data acquisition, and more compact equipment designs continues to grow. Many advanced medical devices—such as rotating imaging platforms, scanning systems, and precision diagnostic instruments—require stable optical and electrical signal transmission during continuous rotation. This creates a critical challenge for system designers: how to maintain high-quality signal integrity without compromising reliability or mechanical performance.

Fiber optic slip rings play a key role in solving this problem. Compared with traditional electrical slip rings, fiber-based transmission is immune to electromagnetic interference, offers higher bandwidth, and enables more stable signal quality—making it particularly suitable for sensitive medical and biomedical applications.

Optimized for Advanced Medical Imaging

The JINPAT LPT000-02S-01FO fiber optic slip ring is designed to support next-generation medical imaging and research equipment. Its optical channel operates at a 1700nm wavelength, a band that has been proven to enhance imaging depth and speed in biomedical applications. Compared with conventional communication wavelengths, light in the 1700nm range experiences reduced scattering in biological tissue, allowing deeper penetration and clearer signal acquisition. This makes it especially suitable for advanced imaging techniques such as multi-photon microscopy and other high-resolution optical diagnostic systems.

To further support demanding medical applications, the slip ring采用 large-core 200/220 fiber, enabling higher optical power transmission than standard single-mode or multi-mode fibers. This design is particularly beneficial for medical systems that require stronger optical signals to achieve higher imaging performance or faster data collection.

Low Optical Loss for Stable Signal Quality

Signal stability is a fundamental requirement in medical equipment, where even small fluctuations can affect imaging accuracy or diagnostic reliability. The LPT000-02S-01FO achieves an optical insertion loss of ≤1dB, with a variation of only 0.5dB, ensuring consistent optical performance throughout continuous rotation. This level of stability helps medical device manufacturers maintain image clarity and system accuracy over long operating periods.

Compact Hollow Shaft Design with High-Speed Rotation

In addition to optical performance, mechanical integration is equally important in medical equipment design. The compact hollow shaft structure of the LPT000-02S-01FO allows for easy integration into space-constrained systems, while supporting rotational speeds of up to 3000 rpm. At the same time, the slip ring can transmit two groups of DC signals (up to 70 MHz), enabling the integration of optical transmission with control or auxiliary electrical signals in a single rotating interface.

Supporting Reliable Medical Equipment Design

By combining advanced optical transmission, low loss performance, high-speed rotation, and a compact mechanical structure, the LPT000-02S-01FO provides a reliable solution for medical imaging and diagnostic equipment manufacturers. It helps simplify system design, improve signal stability, and meet the growing performance requirements of modern medical technology.
