EyeQ from Fenner Dunlop Americas, is the most advanced combined rip detection and continuous belt monitoring system in the world. Called EyeQ because it utilizes a sophisticated computer system, it gives users instant access to information about the conveyor belt condition and works in concert with the conveyor's control system to sound an alarm or stop the belt should any significant damage occur. The system is based on the principle of magnetic flux leakage.

The program carries a recording of the conveyor belts magnetic signature. The information received from the sensor is constantly compared to this recording and any changes are highlighted. There are configurable outputs within the system, which can be set to alarm or trip at various levels of damage, dependant on customer requirements.

The EyeQ system uses 'panels' of small diameter steel cord mounted in the belt at a uniform spacing. The belt scanning system can detect when these panels are 'ripped' and can shut the conveyor system down.





Encoder- Placed on a non-driven pulley, the Encoder determines belt position and speed.

Magnetizer- Creates a magnetic field in both the rip detection panels and the belts steel cords.

Sensor- Gathering a range of essential information on belt condition, position and ongoing damage status
