MiravoBelt Conveyor
Model a belt conveyor with run state, material presence surfaces, startup ramp behavior, runtime health, and faults for line simulations.
What it is
A belt-driven conveyor with speed control, a startup ramp, product presence at entry and exit, and bearing-condition members. It is the transport link that moves parts from one machine to the next.
Used in
smart-factory: the wash station (wash-001) and the inspection station (test-001)
What it tracks
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
running | Run state from run_command plus ramp dynamics. |
speed_feedback | Ramped belt speed. |
motor_current | Motor current, loaded or unloaded. |
product_present_entry / product_present_exit | Photoeye-style product presence at the belt ends. |
head_pulley_temp | Bearing thermal indicator. |
belt_tension | Belt tension. |
vibration_bearing | Bearing vibration. |
runtime_hours | Lifetime counter. |
Fault modes
belt_misalignment: belt tension spikes and motor current rises, after a 15-minute drift in current (+0.8 A) and tension (×1.05).belt_slip: speed feedback drops to 85 % and motor current spikes.bearing_failure: head-pulley temperature and belt tension rise.drive_failure: end-of-life failure, only in thecriticalstage (rate 0.05/h, so it almost always fires within the stage's 100 operating hours). A 15-minute precursor (motor current ×1.15, head-pulley temperature +5 °C), then speed feedback drops to 0 over 10 s and head-pulley temperature jumps 15 °C:runninggoes false. Production stops. It has no duration: it stays stopped untilResetFault,Maintainormiravo inject --clear.
Key parameters
| Parameter | Default | Unit |
|---|---|---|
belt_length_m | 20 | m |
design_speed_mps | 1.5 | m/s |
travel_time_s | 13.3 | s |

Use cases
- Production line throughput and presence tracking.
- Transfer delay between discrete stations, including cycle alignment and buffers.
- Bearing and belt condition monitoring.
