Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19600231A1] A thickness sensor (4) is provided in the region of a straight section (12) of the conveying route of the mail, and a rigidity sensor (3) is provided in the region of a curved section (11) and can be used to measure the deflection of flexible conveyor belts (2). An evaluation device (15) determines the rigidity of the passing mail from the values of the thickness sensor and the rigidity sensor (4, 3).
