The charge of the Belt-Conveyor/Weighing Sector is important in providing appropriate type evaluation criteria based on specifications, tolerances and technical requirements of Handbook 44 Sections 1.10. General Code , 2.21. Belt Conveyor Scale Systems, 2.20 Scales, 2.22 Automatic Bulk Weighing Systems, and 2.24 Automatic Weighing Systems.  The sector’s recommendations are presented to the NTEP Committee each January for approval and inclusion in NCWM Publication 14 Technical Policy, Checklists and Test Procedures for national type evaluation.

The sector is also called upon occasionally for technical expertise in addressing difficult  Handbook 44 issues on the agenda of the NCWM Specifications and Tolerances Committee.  Sector membership includes industry, NTEP laboratory representatives, technical advisors and the NTEP Administrator.  Meetings are held annually, or as needed and are open to all NCWM members and other registered parties.
