Method and measuring system for detecting and localizing misalignments of idlers in belt conveyor systems
Duration: 01.04.2021 to 05.05.2022

Method for determining and localizing misalignments of idlers of an idler station in belt conveyor systems, wherein a mobile measuring system according to one of the claims is used for determining and localizing the misalignments of the idlers, wherein the number of pressure sensors is detachably applied in a line and at a height across the belt width on the underside of the conveyor belt without damaging the conveyor belt, and the number of pressure sensors corresponds at least to the number of idlers of an idler station to be measured, wherein the pressure sensors detect the contact pressure in contact with the idler when an idler of an idler station overruns and the alignment of the idlers is determined on the basis of a characteristic pressure point pattern resulting therefrom.

Analysis and simulation of belt misalignment on belt conveyor systems
Duration: 01.04.2012 to 31.08.2018

The belt misalignment is investigated with measurements on a test system (15 m center distance, 650 mm belt width) in Magdeburg and a calculation model is developed that can map the deformations and displacements of the belt.

Project planning and construction of a test rig for analyzing belt misalignment
Duration: 01.01.2016 to 31.12.2017

The aim of the research project is to further develop and validate a simulation model that can model belt misalignment on belt conveyor systems. For the experimental investigations, a conveyor circuit consisting of two belt conveyor systems is set up. A measurable misalignment is generated on the system by a defined disturbance variable. These measurements will be used to extend and validate the simulation models that have already been developed.
