Matrix Belt Scale: Precise and Stable Measurement, Addressing the Shortcomings of Traditional Belt Scales

In modern industries such as building materials, cement, and mining, belt conveyors are widely used for material handling. Electronic belt scales are often employed to automatically and continuously measure the weight of materials during transport, enabling businesses to monitor material weights for input-output ratio calculations, trade settlements, etc.

Traditional electronic belt scales typically feature complex structures, require extensive installation and maintenance, and have poor anti-interference capabilities. As online dynamic measuring devices, various factors can affect their measurement stability and accuracy, leading to significant maintenance efforts.

In summary, traditional belt scales face numerous challenges in practical applications and cannot adapt to high-precision or harsh environments, exhibiting multiple shortcomings and defects:

1. Material passes through the belt scale's frame, involving multiple force transmission steps that can result in loss, with any changes in the scale frame's structure or operating conditions affecting measurement accuracy.

2. The installation of weighing sensors involves combining sensors with the scale frame through balancing beams and connecting components, resulting in a complex structure, high installation requirements, and reduced reliability.

3. Once installed on a conveyor, traditional belt scales are difficult to modify. If users need to increase the measurement segment for improved accuracy, the existing scales cannot meet this demand, and sensor maintenance or replacement is labor-intensive.

Addressing the structural and technical limitations of traditional belt scales, the matrix belt scale, with its simple structure, easy installation, convenient maintenance, reduced maintenance workload, and strong anti-interference ability, effectively overcomes these shortcomings. The matrix belt scale features a modular, no-crossbeam frame structure that can be combined into multiple measurement segments, simplifying the scale's design and meeting the demands for high on-site measurement accuracy and easy installation and maintenance.

The matrix belt scale's straightforward design allows the weight of the material on the belt to be directly transmitted to the weighing sensors through metering rollers. The sensors convert the weight pressure signals into electrical signals and transmit them to the belt scale's instrument, significantly reducing intermediate force transmission steps and losses, thereby enhancing measurement accuracy.

Moreover, the reduced horizontal surface area of the matrix belt scale minimizes the chances of dust accumulation and material clogging, greatly reducing routine maintenance workload.

The force-bearing surface of the matrix belt scale's weighing sensors is closer to the installation surface, minimizing the installation footprint. With no lever fulcrums or ear axis friction, it reduces the impact of friction and mechanical components on measurement and avoids equipment damage caused by friction.

The modular weighing structure facilitates easy installation or replacement, lowers the design and manufacturing difficulty of the belt scale, and simplifies on-site maintenance.

The modular matrix belt scale can be installed in multiple groups based on user requirements for measurement accuracy and conveyor length, forming single-end or multi-segment measurements. During use, users can add measurement modules based on roller spacing to increase measurement accuracy in response to process changes, without needing to replace the entire belt scale. This makes the matrix belt scale more adaptable to on-site conditions.

The matrix belt scale overcomes the structural and technical challenges of traditional belt scales, improving measurement accuracy, stability, applicability, and practicality. Its simplified structure and compact size facilitate easy installation, debugging, and maintenance operations.
