Magnetic methods in monitoring changes of the technical condition of splices in steel cord conveyor belts

Abstract The article focuses on problems related to diagnosing splices in steel-cord conveyor belts. Data used for the analysis was acquired from belt core testing using the HRDS system. The measurement data served to extract and describe several parameters, whose values depend on the geometry and technical condition of the splice. Initial results have shown that evaluation of the technical condition of the splice can be performed using statistical analysis.
