Your belt can't tell 500 tonnes an hour from zero. Your electricity bill can.
You wouldn't leave your car engine running all night in the car park. Your belt does exactly that, every day.
A medium-size aggregate quarry, two belt scales feeding a crusher. Operators assumed the belts only ran while trucks were dumping — the control room saw ON/OFF status, not load.
SensBELT found Belt #1 running empty for 2.65 hours a day on average: 847 hours a year and €11,430 of wasted energy — plus 14 months of extra wear, bringing a €38,000 belt replacement forward by 14 months.
The fix: automatic idle shutdown — no load for 5 minutes sends a stop signal to the drive. Ghost running dropped to near zero by week 2.
No belt stoppage, no recalibration. One device, one cable.
One device connects to the indicator's RS-232/485 port. No belt stoppage, no recalibration.
The UCS X3 gateway sends data over a secure wireless link. Optional extra sensors: temperature, vibration.
Live throughput, empty-belt detection, calibration-drift alerts and energy analytics — from any device, with automatic alerts and a REST API.
Your indicator says 342 t/h. But is it? SensBELT checks continuously — so you don't have to send a technician to find out.
Does the belt read 0 when it's empty?
Is the full-scale reading still correct?
Is a load cell starting to degrade?
Every event logged and timestamped.
Today's readings are compared with your historical baseline, so you're alerted 4–6 weeks before accuracy drifts out of tolerance — for example: “LC2 will exceed ±0.5% in about 6 weeks. Schedule calibration.”
One unnecessary technician visit costs €142; the system runs €59–99 a month. Avoiding a single wasted trip pays for it — everything else is profit.

A free 30-day pilot on your most-used belt — we lend you the system for a month at no cost. If we don't find wasted hours — walk away.
Automatic empty-belt detection and energy savings from day one.
Continuous calibration checks without site visits — know when accuracy drifts, not after it's too late.
Fewer empty running hours, less wear. Your €38,000 belt replacement should come on schedule, not 14 months early.
