Guidelines On How To Precisely Setup And Adjust Conveyor Scales ...

Conveyor scales are manufacturing equipment very highly demanded in many enterprises such as mines, mechanical, and industrial companies. Its application makes it simple to decide the values of load per unit length in a specific moment of time, speed and performance of device, the total mass of material that passed through the scale – to weigh the load on the conveyor. In addition, it is possible to gather information to create the database and accounting performance of the device.

The operative principle of conveyor scales is the translation of info about load with the help of load measurement sensors and with the help of the sensor for speed of a moving belt in electrical signals, which are shown on the display in digital form. A large range of accessories that contribute to valuation, present an possibility to transmit data of interfaces are available to consumers.

The setup of the belt scales on a conveyor has to be done with big estimation, so that in case of necessity, you had the opportunity to check them out and restore. To adjust, you need to test belt conveyor scales with any kind of mass cargo, for the proper inspection of the material, you will need fixed scales.

Installation of conveyor scales have to be done correctly the type of equipment for which you have purchased them. Further, the scales have to be calibrated and then used for more purposes. Calibration is performed specifically with attorneys goods or accurate platform (car) weights. The accuracy of the calibration depends on cargo value of the error in the dynamic weighing.

Two methods are in use today to perform the installation and calibration of belt conveyor scales. The first method involves a specialist of a "provider" arrives at the scene of the equipment and manufacturing supervision and calibration. The second method involves the organisation "Customer" sets the scale based on recommendations of the "Supplier", and the calibration is performed over the telephone with a specialist of the "Supplier".

Set-up of sensors is not so complex and can be done with photos and instructions. After installation of the sensors "client" sends to "the Provider" photo report and after analysis the gauges begin the calibration. Calibration may be performed on the telephone.
