BeltWatch™ Belt Alignment Rip and Tear

Non Contact – High Speed 

Laser-based Detection System

BeltWatch™ BART

  • Belt Alignment, Rip and Tear
  • BeltWatch™ is a non-contact laser-based system:

Detection and Tripping System

  • RIP (loose hanging attached piece of the conveyor)
  • TEAR (longitudinal cut in conveyor)
  • ALIGNMENT (conveyor tracking)
  • HOLE (missing area in conveyor)

Works on

  • Longitudinal Tears
  • Side Tears
  • Belt Rips / Loose Hanging Flaps
  • Oversize Material
  • Misalignment
  • Holes in Belt
  • Trough and Return Belts detection

Enhanced Features Include

  • Live footage camera
  • HMI / Configurator
  • PLC Field Bus Integration
  • Automated Sensor Testing

Your Complete Conveyor Belt Monitoring and Protection System

Normal mining activities bring about the risk of hard rock/metal objects being trapped at transfer points causing longitudinal slitting or edge damage (tears) as well as surface breaches (rips/holes) in conveyor belts.

This damage in turn may cause the following major consequences:

  • Danger to human safety
  • Consequential damage
  • Damage to ancillary equipment
  • Structural damages
  • Expensive repair costs
  • Production losses occur due to long repair times
  • Production losses due to long repair times

Additional BELTWATCH features

  • Statistical Information captured to assist the Mechanical maintenance personnel to detect deterioration of the conveyor as a whole (Preventative Maintenance Indicator)
  • Monitoring for smaller rips (holes) in conveyor belt
  • Monitoring of belt edge rips / tears
  • Monitoring of belt alignment on Top AND Return conveyor belts
  • Easy customized timing (per Sensor) and sensitivity adjustment by authorised personnel
  • Easy integrates into your existing PLC / SCADA / Network systems
  • Oversize material detection
  • Hanging flap rip detection
  • Snapped Belt detection
  • 7 Inch Colour Touch Screen Interface (Optional)
  • Ethernet Camera Integration (Optional)
  • Feeder Start/Stop Control using Hole detection (Optional)

Testimonial

After a tear on one of our overland conveyors from the tail to the head (in excess of 1500m)
taking 4 days to repair and realising the shortcomings of our current detection systems (inductive
loop + under belt rope), we installed a BeltWatch system for trial purposes. It was a very fortunate
decision as shortly after, we had another tear similar to the previous one, and as a direct result of
the BeltWatch system we managed to limit the damage to less than 80 m and get back to
production in no time. We are now in the process of standardizing on BeltWatch for all our high
impact conveyors at Modikwa mine
