Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021122252A1] A control system (1) for a device (10) for continuously conveying material is provided for at least one conveyor belt apparatus which is designed for continuously conveying the material and has at least one conveyor belt, the conveyor belt apparatus being operable by means of one or more drives (2) in multiple working processes to provide a predefinable target conveyor current, wherein the control system is designed to detect at least one value of a power and/or energy consumed by at least one of the drives during a working process and to determine an energy efficiency for the respective working process and for the predefined target conveyor current using the at least one value of the consumed power and/or energy, wherein the control system (1) is also designed to provide control data relating to the drive speed for the at least one drive depending on the energy efficiency.
