Pancake type slip rings are used in applications where slip ring have limited space in height direction. Pancake slip rings are used e.g. in medical, measure, test, print and textile industry. Combinent makes also large pancake slip rings for reclaimers used in bulk material handling industry. Those pancake slip rings have typically through bore between 500mm to 1000mm. Pancake slip rings which are made of several pieces may have even larger diameters. Those slip rings are called Split pancake slip rings.
