Abstract
A device for calibrating a conveyor belt comprising a housing with a remote controlled sensor assembly. The remote controller is secured to the housing for storage and shipping, the controller operating as a guard for the stored sensor assembly. When the remote controller is detached, the sensor assembly used to calibrate the conveyor belt is exposed. The housing is set adjacent a conveyor belt; the sensor assembly is set onto the conveyor belt that is to be measured. Jogging the conveyor belt at set intervals, the sensor assembly self-aligns while measuring the distance traversed and calculates the appropriate length correcting or speed that can be inputted to a conveyor belt control system.
