An important component of in-house logistics are various transport systems. Their task is to ensure the reliable operation of individual production and service processes. From a wide range of available in-house logistics transport systems, belt conveyors play an important role. For their trouble-free operation, it is necessary, in addition to a number of factors, to place great emphasis on the conveyor belts quality. The quality of conveyor belts is a decisive factor for their reliable and uninterrupted operation. Over the years, an approach to assess their quality has developed, that can be labeled as a standard approach. However, this standard approach is in many ways inadequate and has been overcome nowadays. Therefore, a new, progressive approach based on the latest knowledge and technologies need to be sought. This paper will describe a progressive method of industrial metrology in more detail, applied to assessing the conveyor belts quality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
