This International Standard specifies three methods for the measurement of the total belt thickness and the thickness of covers of steel cord conveyor belts. Methods A1 and A2 (micrometer methods) can be used for all steel cord conveyor belts for the measurement of both total belt thickness and cover thickness. Method B (optical method) is recommended for the measurement of cover thickness only. It is not suitable if there is a textile or metal weft, nor if the ends of the steel cords become twisted when cut. This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 188 "Conveyor belts", in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 41 "Pulleys and belts (including veebelts)", SC 3 "Conveyor belts" of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The responsible National Committee is NA 045-02-05 AA "Fördergurte" ("Conveyor belts") of Rubber Technology Standards Committee (FAKAU).
