Intended purpose The “DBW” is a weigh-belt feeder for the feeding of bulk solids that are
meterable by means of a conveyor belt (= feeding organ).
The product from the storage equipment is fed on the conveyor belt via the
inlet of the device. The revolving conveyor belt conveys the product over a
weighing bridge that permits to detect the feed rate and then further to the
outlet where it leaves the device in free fall. The conveyor belt is driven by a
drive motor (= feed drive). The working point of the device, the feed rate (=
product quantity/unit of time) is adjusted by means of the determination of
the speed of the feed drive.

Drive The conveyor belt is driven by a motor/gear combination that is commanded

by the feeding controller via a drive controller (operating release, default
speed etc.). An incremental encoder detects the actual speed and sends the
digital signal (digital pulses) to the feeding controller, where it is processed for
the control and monitoring functions.

1 Adjustment of belt run
2 Idle roller
3 Belt tensioning lever
4 Tensioning weight
The illustrated components permit

• parallel alignment of the idle and drive roller,
• adjustment of the belt tracking on the idle roller,
• adjustment of the belt tension.
The correct adjustment of the belt run is a precondition for a safe and proper
operation of the weigh-belt feeder. In case of an incorrect setting operational
failures or damage of the device will occur.

Belt run monitoring The optional belt run monitoring

permits a slip detection for the
conveyor belt. A perforated disk and
an inductive proximity switch (1) are
mounted inside the idle roller (2) on
the axis of rotation for the detection
of the speed of the idle roller.
The feeding controller compares the speed of the idle roller to the speed of the
drive roller and signalises an operating failure (slippage), if the difference
exceeds the permissible limit value.

Construction of the The illustration shows the construction of the weighing bridge. The weighing
weighing bridge bridge (2) is a frame structure that is mounted in the recess of the transport
table (1) and serves as a support for the load cell (4). A measuring stick (3) is
mounted on the load cell, the conveyor belt runs over the measuring stick and
thus the load cell is charged with the corresponding belt load. The weight
signal is sent to the feeding controller, where it is processed for the control
and monitoring functions.
Overload protection for the load cell

The contact surfaces (5) on the inside protect the load cell against overloads. If
the belt load exceeds the maximum allowed load the measuring stick (3)
touches the contact surfaces and cannot transmit any further weight loading
to the load cell (missing mobility).
The adjustment of the load cell

The screws (6) permit to suspend the control weight for the adjustment of the
load cell.

Establishment of an An interlocking chain is an electrical cabling,

interlocking chain
• that takes into account additional start conditions for the start enable of
the feeding operation (e.g. closed circuit breaker or operational readiness
of the connected equipment).
• that stops the feeding operation immediately, if one operating condition is
not complied with (e.g. tripping of a circuit breaker).
The implementation of an interlocking chain is a function of the hardware used

on site (programmable logic controller, relay etc.) and has to comply with the
applicable regulations concerning the safety of man and machine. When using
a feeding controller type Congrav® the feeding is operated via the feeding
controller. Depending on the hardware execution of the Congrav® different
possibilities are available for the establishment of an interlocking chain.

Belt tracking on the idle roller, the guide roller and the “plough” (belt scraper)
has to be checked if the system is stopped.
1. Lift the tensioning weight, move the guide roller and the “plough”
forwards and backwards.
2. If the movements are sluggish, reduce the belt tension.
3. Check the belt tracking on the idle roller.
With a correct belt tracking the belt lies on the whole width of the idle
roller and is not lifted by the idle roller.
4. An incorrect belt tracking can be eliminated with the following measures:
Fault Measure
Belt does not have contact Lift the idle roller
Belt is lifted Lower the idle roller
Belt does not have even Align idle roller at both bearings

Function of taring Taring permits to measure the influence of an empty conveyor belt on the
weight measuring, the measured value is memorised as tare value. For the
computation of the actual belt load the software of the feeding controller
takes into account the tare value.
Be sure to observe the documentation of the feeding controller!

The taring sequence is a function of the software of the feeding controller. The
following description takes into account the general sequence of the feeding
controllers of the manufacturer. The functions/parameters of the feeding
controller are designated (e.g. “auto-tare“).

Specifications for taring The following specifications have to be complied with for taring:
• The conveyor belt is empty.
• The “auto-tare“ values equals 0.
• The belt load displayed is inferior to 5% of the “weighing range“.
Should this not be the case, the belt load has to be reduced by the
determination of a suitable “coarse tare“ value (see description feeding
controller).
• The belt load displayed is higher than 0.

Taring sequence The “auto-tare“ operation runs down as follows:

1. Start the “auto-tare“ operation.
→ The weigh-belt feeder starts with a constant speed.
→ The "auto-tare“ operation is terminated automatically, if the
determined “idle time” has run down and one revolution of the belt
has been carried out.
→ The computed average belt load is memorised as “auto-tare“ value.
As an alternative, the “auto-tare” value can be entered manually for some
software versions.

Length of the weighing When the feeding controller computes the product quantity that has been fed
bridge out (“throughput“) it also takes into consideration the length of the weighing
bridge as parameter “weighing bridge length“ and has to be adapted to the
corresponding device due to manufacturing tolerances. Depending on the on-
site possibilities there are three different ways to determine the "weighing
bridge length“ (gauging, product bag, diverter valve).

3. Discharge the collecting receptacle and bring it back into position.
4. Set the throughput counter on the feeding controller to the smallest
divisor.
5. Reset the throughput counter.
6. Adjust the setpoint (working point).
7. Start the feeding operation for a fixed period of time (t = 2 min).
8. Stop the feeding after the time has run down.

characteristics:
• The width of the bag is roughly corresponding to the layer on the belt.
• The weight of the belt is roughly corresponding to the belt load.
• The product in the bag is evenly distributed (sand, water or similar).
The adjustment runs down as follows:

1. If necessary, the belt has to be discharged.
2. Set the throughput counter on the feeding controller to the smallest
divisor.
3. Reset the throughput counter.

Adjustment with a The use of a so-called diverter valve is a possibility for the adjustment or the
diverter valve checking of the weigh-belt feeder during the operation. A diverter valve is a
mechanical device that permits to take a sample from the product flow during
the feeding operation.
Optimise the operating parameters

The adjustment or the checking of the weigh-belt feeder is carried out during
the operation and for the feed rate that has been set. It requires that the
parameters of the feeding controller (e.g. controller) have been optimised for
this operation.
The adjustment or the test runs down as follows:

1. Sampling of a test quantity from the product flow for a fixed measuring
period tM (e.g. tM = 1 min.).
2. Compute the feed rate (= act).
1. Weigh the sample quantity (WT).
2. Act = WT x 60/tM [kg/h]
3. Compare the adjusted feed rate (= set) with the actual feed rate (= act).
4. If set ≠ act, the “weighing bridge length” (WL) has to be changed.
1. WLnew = WLold x (set/act)
2. Stop feeding and enter WBnew to the feeding controller.
