Rotary Union for Hydraulics

Rotary Union for Hydraulics

Rotary Joints, also known as rotary couplings or Swivels, are a mechanical device used to transfer fluid (usually hydraulic oil) from a stationary system, to a rotary system.

Rotary Joints are used in wind turbines to deliver hydraulic fluid to the blade pitch actuators. Rotary Joints are also used in various industrial and manufacturing processes to transfer fluid.
BGB have designed and manufactured two variants of joint, the "Sealed” type where the chambers are separated with specially designed seals, and the "Hydrostatic” type, that does not require seals between chambers.

Lightning Protection

Lightning Protection

BGBs Lightning Brush holders are robust units that are designed to dissipate lightning energy and thus defend critical components (typically main shaft and yaw bearings).

The 120 amp brush holders, when used as part of a total lightning and surge protection system, play a very important role in the protection of buildings, structures and equipment against direct lightning strikes.


Arc propagation brackets are also available to act as backup for overload conditions.

Slip rings and rotary solutions can be found in a variety of processes within the semiconductor industry.

Slip rings for Lapping and Polishing, Rotary Motion, Processing of Silicon Wafers, Wafer Polishing, Grinding, Wafer Handling, Turntables, Metrology, PVD machines (Physical Vapor Deposition) and robotic arms all use some form of rotary device(s) such as a slip ring or rotary union.
Water Treatment Systems

Water Treatment Systems

Built to last the rigours of an outdoor environment..."Fit and forget" BGB have been designing and manufacturing slip ring collector columns for Half-bridge rotary scrapers and Clarifiers for many years. BGB were one of the first slip ring manufacturers to design and produce a slip ring collector column compliant to WIMES directive 2.01 section 6.12.2 for rotating half bridge scrapers.

BGB is now a leading supplier in the development of collector column solutions for this unique industry and work with many of the major wastewater sewage treatment specialist such as: MEPS (MWH & EPS), Ham Baker Group (A&J Water Treatment), Jacopa (Ovivo), Anglian Water, United Utilities and many more. BGB have SPB units currently in service that are still operational after more than 25 years!
