This article deals with adaptive control of the belt conveyor preloading. One of the main factors influencing the behaviour of the belt conveyor is preload of conveyor belt. Adaptive control of this parameter is possible to optimize the service parameters of belt conveyors. The function of adaptive control of the belt conveyor preloading is experimentally verified.

Goal of a project solved with company Pragometal, s.r.o. is to create a new design of integrated wrapping palletizer. This machine will have new design properties such as integrated manipulation with goods into carrying structure of wrapping machine, new controlling system, new conception of running of roll and device for ending and welding of film. Newly design machine is based on unique join of two separated machines (palletizing and wrapping) into one workplace. This integration requires high demands on precision of kinematic, preliminary and checking calculations of individual machine components. Components of carrying structure and machine are designed with help of FEM calculations. These calculations are experimentally verified on real prototype of machine before series production is started. This verification is needed to ensure demanded operating reliability and life of newly designed machine.
