Weigh Belt Conveyors are generally slow speed conveyor installed with a single or two idler Belt Weigher.
Active Weighing Solutions Belt Conveyors are designed for continuous heavy duty environments either indoors or outdoors
The Conveyors will accurately weigh any bulk solid material the conveyor will carry and accurately control the flow rate for product blending or process control.
Application
Weigh Belt Conveyors are normally used for:
In-Process Control,
Batch Out Loading
Output Blending
Weigh Belt Conveyor in action
Operation
Any product that can be conveyed on a conventional belt conveyor can be weighed. Weigh Belt Conveyors provide continuous weighing with better accuracy than a Belt Weigher.
The Weigh Belt conveyor will provide:
the total of the material passing
Instantaneous flow rate
An analogue output signal to control other equipment
RS232, RS422/485 communications
Pulse output
When used for product blending, the analogue output signal acts as a reference to control the addition of one or more.
Features
Weighing Accuracy 0.5% and better
Feed rates from 50kg/hr to 500tph
"C" Frame construction for fast belt changes
Crowned and lagged head drum
Wide range of lengths and belt widths. eg 300mm to 2500mm
Open or fully enclosed design
Cantilevered design option
Constant belt tension mechanism
Direct driven shaft mounted motor and gearbox
Epoxy coated, mild steel or stainless steel construction options
Adjusts for large flow rate range
The Active Weighing Solutions Weigh Belt Conveyor will overcome accuracy problems caused by a large range in product flow rate. This is achieved through controlling the weight on the weigh deck.
Selection Criteria
Weigh Belt conveyors provide the advantage of continuous operation and require only minimal headroom.
However, full dynamic material calibration is more costly than static calibration, although Weigh Belt Conveyors can be easily statically calibrated to yeild reasonable accuracy.
