Conveyor weighing

Conveyor weighing

Conveyor weighing captures the quantity of material transported on a belt. WEIGHTEC SYSTEMS modernizes these systems to improve the reliability of measurement, control and operation.

Weighing on a moving belt

A conveyor scale must measure material while the belt moves, compensating for belt speed, tension and vibration. Small disturbances can become large errors in the totalized quantity, so the setup matters.

  • Integration with belt speed and travel
  • Totalized quantity for the transported material
  • Compensation of belt tension effects
  • Stable signal on dusty or vibrating conveyors

Modernization of the system

WEIGHTEC SYSTEMS upgrades conveyor weighing with Siemens PLCs and Siemens weighing modules. We keep the reusable mechanics, modernize the control/electronics, and at project end the programs, backups and documents are handed over to the client.

  • Replacement of obsolete weigh electronics
  • Speed sensor and weighing integration
  • Totalizing and reporting
  • Diagnostics for sensors and signal faults

Reliable operation

Operators need to trust the displayed quantity and know when the system drifts. We calibrate with the real product and leave clear checks and documentation.

  • Calibration with the actual material
  • Verification of idlers and load-cell alignment
  • Routine checks for operators
  • Documentation and after-sales support

Frequently asked questions

What does conveyor weighing measure?

The mass of material transported on a belt, as a flow rate and a totalized quantity.

Can you modernize an existing conveyor scale?

Yes, the electronics and control are modernized while sound mechanics are reused.

Do you calibrate the scale?

Yes, calibration with the actual product is part of the intervention.
