Accurate and robust: Built-in belt scales
Stable construction, robust design and high measuring accuracy - this is how the belt scales from MTS can be described. They are available in numerous versions - suitable for belt widths from 400 mm and feed rates from 2 t/h, in legal-for-trade and non-legal-for-trade versions.
The experience of over 30 years has gone into the development of the MTS belt scale series EBW 10, EBW 20 and ESW 2.3. As a manufacturer, MTS MessTechnik also offers the possibility of adapting the belt scales for special requirements.
For example, belt scales in mobile screening and crushing plants are exposed to much higher loads than in stationary belt conveyors. The EBW 10-HD Mobile belt scale is specially designed for this operation: a special, extra-reinforced load carrier with a robust load cell provides reliable functionality during operation and also during transport of the plant.
Conveyor discharge weigher CDW for recording of smaller throughput quantities
The conveyor discharge weigher CDW is ideally suited for the continuous recording of small to medium throughput quantities from 200 to 5,000 kg/h. The scale is installed at the discharge point of a belt conveyor and collects the conveyed material in the hopper, where it is weighed.
This static weighing achieves a very high measuring accuracy of +/- 0.2%. The CDW is often used to determine the quantity of recycled metals or other valuable raw materials.
So, the CDW scale is an addition to classic built-in belt scales if these cannot be used due to the low feed rate, the bulk materials properties or the installation situation.
Weighing of apron conveyor and containers with LMB 490
The weighing of a pivoting apron conveyor and a movable container – these are two of many applications which a load cell proves its worth. In all cases, extreme robustness and stability, even against dynamic forces/ lateral forces, are required.
The extremely robust load cell LMB 490 is used for such heavy-duty applications. The load cell is firmly mounted without any horizontal or vertical movement. The LMB 490 can therefore be used especially in mobile installations.
Thus, weighing of apron conveyors and movable containers is possible – despite the very high loads and transverse loads occurring there.
Bunker weighing with VC 3500/ LCM 460
The VC 3500 and LCM 460 are weighing modules with a movable top plate and integrated lift-off protection. They are ideally used for continuous weight and quantity measurement in silos and vessels or for weighing of bunker systems with discharge activator.
The modules can be mounted directly between the bunker and substructure. Although, the special design of the module ensures optimal force transmission and high lift-off and lateral load safety – without additional steering and lashing mechanisms.
About MTS
MTS MessTechnik Sauerland GmbH offers weighing and dosing systems for bulk materials of all kinds. With its know-how, the company from Germany develops and realizes standard and customer-specific solutions for industrial applications. The products are adapted to the requirements of the application and the customer. “We do it right!“ – with this slogan MTS has developed and manufactures its own weighing systems since 2003: built-in belt scale series (ESW 2.2/ 2.3, EBW 10, EBW 20), the impact scale ImpactWeigh, the dosing scales of DosWeigh series and DiffWeigh, the conveyor discharge weigher CDW as well as the platform scales. All these are manufactured in Germany.
Comprehensive service features from consulting, mounting and commissioning to maintenance and support for legal-for-trade scales complete the company profile. MTS is certified to ISO 9001:2015 and has a repair provider approval according to § 54 of MessEV and consequently the authorization to perform repairs and service on legal-for-trade weighing systems.
MTS customers are from a variety of industries, e.g. wood-processing companies, foundries, recycling industry, pit and quarry industry as well as plant construction.
