Introduction

This part is focused on automation of belt conveyors for transportation of bulk materials and related devices for processing of raw materials. The following products represent a comprehensive solution to the automation from documentation up to individual products for switching, scanning and detection of material. The products are generally applicable in heavy industry in the environments of stone quarries, sand quarries, coal mines, quarries of other raw materials, coal feeding of electric power plants and heating plants etc.

Steps towards Automation of Belt Conveying
Why to automate	The consideration “Why to automate”, which deals with operation automation from selection of suitable measuring units up to automation systems. The price and life-time are taken into consideration.
Documentation	Creation of documentation in the right order saves unnecessary expenses and prevents technical defects. We recommend that the individual types of documentations are carefully read through. All types have been developed in accordance to the valid regulations.
Automation elements	a set of the complete automation units RDP for belt conveying, control and transfer boxes. Controlling without a PLC, with VHR-10M and with a PLC.
Emergency stop	Safety switches of emergency stop including accessories for belt conveying; audible and acoustic alarms.
Technological switches	Scanners and switches for belt conveying, including assessing units, which carry out measuring and checking of operational values of machine operation.
Metal detectors	Indication of metal objects on belt conveyors, chutes and piping.
