A BELT WEIGHER is a piece of industrial equipment used to gauge the mass or flow rate of material travailing over a troughed (cupped) conveyor belt of any length which is able to adequately contain the material being weighed.
Commonly incorporated into conveyor belt systems, belt weighers are used in a wide range of industries to report instantaneous flow rate and totalised mass feed rate of powders and bulk solid materials. This data is commonly used for stock control, process control and in bulk material handling processes.
