ABSTRACT:
An integrating system for measuring the total weight of material moved by an endless belt conveyor over a weighing scale. The system compensates for the effect of temperature upon the dimensions of the structures that transmit belt loading forces to the load cell. A temperature responsive transducer at the conveyor provides an input to a temperature compensating multiplier which introduces a temperature compensating factor into the weight computation.
