Modular Multi-Idler Belt weigher model MBD

Highly accurate modular multi-idler belt weigher with dual and four-idler configurations. Designed for continuous flow measurement with modular flexibility for a wide range of belt widths.

Description

Features:

  • Highly accurate and proven rugged design (±0.25–0.5%)

  • Fully floating weigh carriage for simple calibration

  • Cost-effective modular construction

  • Dual and four idler configurations for different belt widths

  • Integrated test weight receptors or optional lever-arm stored test weights

  • Optional friction jockey wheel for return belt

  • IP65 stainless steel load cells and junction box for durability

Applications:

  • Continuous measurement of material flow rates

  • Monitoring throughput, consumption, and production rates

  • Accountability of stored and retrieved material

  • Maximum or minimum load limit alarms

  • Batching and loading station control

  • Pre-feeder regulation

Construction:

  • Fully floating weighing platform for precise measurement

  • Overload-protected stainless steel load cells (IP65)

  • IP65 cable junction box (painted mild steel or optional 316 stainless steel)

  • IP65 tail drum speed sensor

  • Mounting and adjustment bolts

  • Optional weigh-quality idler sets for ±0.2 mm alignment

Operating Principle:
Load cells measure the load on the conveyor section while a speed transducer acquires belt speed. The controller calculates both instantaneous load and totalized flow.

  • Longer weigh lengths reduce errors from conveyor dynamics

  • Wide belts with large side forces are accommodated with modular multi-idler design

  • Modules can be run in tandem or parallel for flexibility across applications

  • Modular design results in lighter construction while maintaining precision

Specifications:

  • Belt widths: 500–2500 mm depending on model

  • Accuracy: ±0.25%–0.5% depending on model

  • Single module (dual idler) and multi-module (four idler) configurations

  • Standard idler spacings: 1000, 1250 & 1500 mm

  • Fully modular for easy integration with new or existing conveyors

Custom Designs:

  • Available for non-standard stringers, idler spacing, and belt widths

  • Accuracy confirmed via formal quotation

  • Installation should follow operating and installation manuals
