Conveyor Belt Weighing System for self-assembly

System description

Belt scales are often used under extremely harsh surrounding conditions. When designing UNIBAND® great emphasis was placed on achieving the highest possible measurement precision by using robust and maintenance-free components. The weighing construction is made from square-section stainless-steel It is suitable for widths from 350 mm to 2,400 mm and for outputs from 10 t/h to 2,500 t/h.

The single idler belt scale UNIBAND® with its stainless-steel weighing frame has a fully encapsulated, laser-welded strain gauge transducer.

The unique design has proven itself even under harsh environmental conditions. It guarantees utmost accuracy and reliability. The customer effectively controls the processes and inventory by using the belt scale UNIBAND®. He can always rely on precise traceability and utilisation forecast. Loss of material is reduced in production. At the same time production and delivery are optimised.

How it works

The belt scale records the material flow by means of the weighing frame resp. the incorporated load cell on a defined belt section. The weighing station converts the vertical pressure into a horizontal tensile force via two maintenancefree pivot bearings.

The tensile force is transmitted to the load cell sensor and is converted by this into an electrical voltage signal. The weighing unit connected to the sensor evaluates the weight signal in relation to the belt speed tachometer. It displays the idler transport rate in „t/h” (tons per hour) and the selected count in „t” (e.g. tons per day, tons per month or tons per year).
