How does a belt scale work?

How does a belt scale work? Electronic belt scales are widely used in factories and are essential equipment for factory assembly lines. So, what is the working principle of belt scales? The weighing bridge of the electronic belt scale is installed on the conveyor frame. When the material passes through, the metering roller detects the weight of the material on the belt conveyor and acts on the load cell through the lever to generate a voltage signal proportional to the belt load. There is a weighing sensor installed on the weighing bridge on the belt scale. When working, the weight of the material detected on the belt is sent to the weighing instrument, and the speed signal of the belt conveyor from the speed sensor is also sent to the weighing instrument. The instrument integrates the speed signal and the weighing signal to obtain the instantaneous flow and accumulated amount. The speed sensor is directly attached to the large diameter speed roller and provides a series of pulses, each pulse represents a belt moving unit, and the frequency of the pulses is proportional to the belt speed. The weighing instrument receives signals from the load cell and the speed sensor, and obtains an instantaneous flow value and an accumulated weight value through integral operation, and displays them respectively. The above is the working principle of the electronic belt scale. Guangdong Kenwe specializes in the research, development, production and sales of weighing equipment.
