The ICS series electronic belt scale is an important weighing equipment in modern industrial measurement, realizing automated weighing during the transportation of bulk materials. With advancements in science, technology, and industrial techniques, electronic belt scales have undergone several iterations. Currently, there are two main types: the ICS series electronic belt scale and the matrix high-precision electronic belt scale. Although the matrix high-precision electronic belt scale features high accuracy, high adaptability, and modular combination, its price is relatively higher. In many cases, the ICS series electronic belt scale can meet users' practical application needs at a lower cost and higher cost-effectiveness. In terms of structure, the high-precision electronic belt scale is more like an upgraded version of the ICS belt scale, with the added flexibility of modular weighing units, while the ICS belt scale typically comes in fixed configurations.
The ICS electronic belt scale, where "I" represents the belt scale, "C" for the resistance strain gauge sensor, and "S" for the digital display format, is used on belt conveyors with weighing results displayed digitally. The material on the belt is transmitted to the weight sensor through the scale frame of the belt scale. The weight sensor captures the weight signal of the material, the speed sensor captures the belt speed signal, and the instrument receives and processes these signals to calculate and display data such as instantaneous and cumulative material weight on its screen.
The ICS electronic belt scale is a series of products, not a single structural type. Its scale frame structures include lever type and suspension type, mainly including:
(1) The ICS-17A model features a double lever, four idlers, and two weight sensors. The ICS-17B model is half of the ICS-17A, with a single lever, two sets of idlers, and one weight sensor.
(2) The ICS-14A model is fully suspended with four sets of idlers and four weight sensors. The ICS-14B model is half of the ICS-14A, fully suspended with two sets of idlers and two weight sensors.
(3) The ICS-20A model has a double lever, two sets of idlers, and one weight sensor. The ICS-20B model is half of the ICS-20A, with a single lever, one set of idlers, and one weight sensor.
(4) The ICS-30A model is fully suspended with one set of idlers and two weight sensors. The ICS-30B model is fully suspended with one set of idlers and one weight sensor. The ICS-30-2T-4C model is fully suspended with two sets of idlers and four weight sensors.
These various design structures cater to diverse application environments. Different industries, application sites, material characteristics, material flow rates, conveyor inclination angles, belt widths, etc., can select a suitable belt scale model. For example, for longer conveyors, a model with a long weighing area and strong "filtering" capability, such as the ICS-17A, should be chosen. For shorter conveyors, low-value materials, or conveyors with a larger inclination angle, the ICS-30 model is suitable. For trade settlement scenarios requiring high accuracy or flat conveyors, the ICS-14 model is recommended.
In summary, select an appropriate model based on actual needs. When choosing an ICS belt scale, it is crucial to understand your requirements clearly. Of course, Guonuo Technology, a provider of electronic belt scales, will arrange professional pre-sales technicians to communicate with users and recommend suitable and reasonable belt scale models and solutions.
As a general-purpose dynamic weighing equipment, the ICS series electronic belt scale is more economical, cost-effective, stable, reliable, durable, and can be selected based on different needs.
