Abstract: A method for optimizing the running properties of a rotating belt of a weighing belt conveyor includes, for at least one rotation of the belt, determining a unique reference position on the belt. A force signal is determined in dependence on the movement of the belt with respect to the reference position during the at least one rotation. From this force signal, the course of a deviation of the force signal from a set value as a consequence of a disruptive force is determined. At least in correspondence with the direction of the determined deviation, the mass of the belt is increased or reduced at locations in dependence on the position of the belt with respect to the reference position.

Abstract: A modular weighing device includes a basic base module and a plurality of extension modules mechanically and electrically connected to the basic base module in a disconnectable manner. Each extension module includes an add-on base module and a connection module. The extension modules are arranged adjacent to one another and are each mechanically and electrically connected to one another in a disconnectable manner to form a stack of extension modules and the basic base module is electrically and mechanically connected to one of the outer extension modules of the stack in a disconnectable manner. The connection modules can comprise electronic evaluation and/or control units for weighing components or can comprise weighing cells.

Abstract: A test block is formed of at least one profile block and one mating block, wherein the two blocks lying one on top of the other with varying thickness combinations are radiographed together, in order to ascertain, for the pairings of the materials in the respective thickness, in each case a reference value relating to their common radiographic properties.

Abstract: A belt conveyor, particularly a weighing belt conveyor includes a frame constructed from at least one side member and at least one cross member or from a supporting plate. Two rollers are mounted on the frame, with an endless belt located around the two rollers whereby the two rollers are mounted in such a way that they can be moved relative to each other in the conveyance direction. At least one adjustment device is provided on the frame for adjusting the separation between the two rollers. The adjustment device includes a rotatable adjusting component, the axis of rotation S of which lies obliquely above or obliquely below the conveyor level at an angle greater than 0° and less than 90°, in order to make an adjustment to the belt tension possible even after the endless belt has been installed.

Abstract: A belt conveyor is configured for conveying products in a conveying direction and defines a width extending in a transverse direction orthogonal to the conveying direction, and a height direction orthogonal to the conveying and transverse directions. An ejector is fixed to the belt conveyor and acts in the transverse direction for sorting out/discharging products. The ejector has an end region which faces the product to be sorted out, and has a base body mounted in a base position on the belt conveyor by means of a holder. The basic position of the base body can be adjusted by means of an adjusting device of the holder in the transverse direction within an adjustment path so that the end area of the non-actuated ejector in the transverse direction can protrude across the belt conveyor width by at least half of that width, or more.

Abstract: An X-ray detector device for a device for the X-ray inspection of products includes a first line detector with a first discrete spatial resolution, a second line detector with the same or lesser second discrete spatial resolution, and an evaluation and control unit. The first line detector is operable to capture X-radiation in a non-spectrally resolved fashion along a first capture line transverse to a product movement direction to generate first image data. The second line detector is operable to capture the X-radiation in a spectrally resolved fashion along a second capture line parallel to the first capture line to generate second image data. The evaluation and control unit is operable to evaluate the first and second image data to detect at least one predefined feature of the product with the first discrete spatial resolution by combining the items of information contained in the first and second image data.

Abstract: A conveyor device includes at least three lift columns, a lower conveyor body, and an upper conveyor body. The upper conveyor body is adjustable in its height relative to the lower conveyor body. The lift columns project at least partially above the upper conveyor body without lengthwise supports acting in the transport direction.

Abstract: A flexure hinge with two material segments connected to each other via a material tapering to a thin spot which defines a pivot axis between the two material segments. The material segments are provided with recesses such that the strength existing in the thin spot with respect to normal stresses or bending stresses is kept largely constant within a distance from the thin spot.
