Integrated rotating subsystems

As radar and other antenna systems become more complex and data transfer requirements increase, Diamond Antenna can offer customers several components in one rotational package to create a complete integrated rotating subsystem. Requests for various rotational devices packaged together can include any or all of the following:

• RF rotary joint
• Slip ring/ Roll-Ring®
• APG (encoder) package
• Fibre optic rotary joints
• Fluid and media rotary unions
