In an aspect there is disclosed examples of a clamp (10, 110) for measuring a tension of a conveyor belt (12). The clamp (10, 110) including a clamping portion (18, 118) arranged to engage with opposing faces of the conveyor belt (12) in a clamped condition to hold the conveyor belt (12) relative to an anchor, and a load sensing arrangement (22, 122) associated with the clamping portion (18, 118) configured to provide a signal indicative of the tension in the conveyor belt (12) in the clamped condition. A system and related method are also disclosed.

A clamp for open ended flat belts. The clamp has a tapered housing with an aperture at a first end providing access to the housing interior and a second open end also providing access to the interior. A tapered wedge is removable and replaceable from the interior of the housing, the wedge having a first end and a radiused second end and having a surface comprising alternating ribs and lands. The clamp includes a lock having a concave surface similar to the radiused second end of the tapered wedge. The housing may have a removeable and replaceable side wall providing access to the interior.

The present disclosure relates to a belt or a belt segment having steel cables that run substantially in the longitudinal direction of the belt or belt segment and are disposed so as to be substantially mutually parallel, wherein the belt or the belt segment has at least one open end having a fastening device which via clamping is connected to at least one part of the steel cables. The belt or the belt segment is characterized by at least one measuring installation which is configured to detect a spacing (d) in the longitudinal direction (X) between the belt or the belt segment and the fastening device.
