Belt Conveyor Scale Maintenance Checklist

Keep this checklist at the ready on your iPhone, iPad or other Android device.

Customize the checklist to meet your company's needs by including steps needed to adhere to simple maintenance procedures and keep your conveyor scales accurate and meeting the installation calibration settings. Check settings such as zero reference number, excitation, line voltage, belt length, load cell offset and other critical settings.

Keep your belt conveyor scales meeting the criteria of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Check the belt conveyor scale, and the entire material handling system, during your routine conveyor belt inspection to maintain confidence in the conveyor equipment and to give your team greater control of the accuracy the conveyor is providing.

Use the app routinely as both a preventive maintenance checklist and a safety inspection checklist. Note that verification of the basic mechanics of the conveyor system itself is an integral part of the scale maintenance procedure.

Be proactive by conducting periodic inspections of the belt conveyor scale and taking proper care before problems arise. After completion of any inspection, collect the electronic signatures of all appropriate parties and save the completed maintenance checklist report safely and securely to the GoCanvas Cloud. Generate a PDF form and send it to the manager, supervisor, or other appropriate parties as required.
