Belt weighers, also known as conveyor scales, weightometers, or continuous weighers, are essential for dynamically measuring products on a moving conveyor belt. These systems provide real-time flow rate and total mass data, integrating with IT management systems for inventory control, weigh feeding, bulk material batching, and process control.
Diverseco designs and manufactures advanced belt weighers featuring a weigh frame equipped with a digital load cell mounted within the conveyor frame. This setup is connected to a digitiser that converts weight readings into flow rate and total weight. The system uses load cells to measure the load on the weigh length and a speed transducer to monitor belt speed, with a controller calculating both instantaneous load and total amount.
Our belt weighers are designed to minimize errors from conveyor system variations. Longer weigh lengths reduce errors, while wide belts can introduce side forces. To address these challenges, Diverseco offers modular belt weigher systems that can be configured in tandem or parallel, catering to diverse applications.
