Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at

Introduction
Many applications for light conveyor belts require that the belt is initially tensioned and there is no
subsequent change in belt length by adjustment of any rollers. In such cases, the tensioning force in the
belt changes throughout the life of the belt because of two effects: permanent stretch and relaxation of the
belt, both of which change its real elastic modulus. It is vital to have a means of establishing the way in
which the tensioning forces change; and this test applies a cyclic stretching between two defined states of
elongation over a large number of cycles. It has been found experimentally that the tensioning force drops in
an exponential way. It is possible to measure the tensioning force and then to calculate what is defined in this
International Standard as the “relaxed elastic modulus”. It is important to note that this is not a true elastic
modulus, because it includes an element of permanent stretch; but, except in cases where the permanent
stretch is relatively large, it is a measure of great practical value in determining final tensioning forces. This
International Standard is designed to meet the requirements for such applications.

Light conveyor belts — Determination of the relaxed

1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a test method for the determination of the relaxed elastic modulus of
light conveyor belts according to ISO 21183-1 or other conveyor belts where ISO 9856 is not applicable.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references,
the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 7500-1, Metallic materials — Calibration and verification of static uniaxial testing machines — Part 1:
Tension/compression testing machines — Calibration and verification of the force-measuring system
ISO 9856, Conveyor belts — Determination of elastic and permanent elongation and calculation of elastic modulus

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
elastic modulus
force per unit of width of a conveyor belt
Note 1 to entry: It is expressed in newtons per millimetre width of belt and is represented in ISO 9856 by the symbol M.
Note 2 to entry: This definition of the term deviates from that normally used in engineering, which is expressed in
units of stress, i.e. a force per unit of cross-section, and represented by the symbol E (see, for example, ISO 527-4).
3.2
elastic modulus
force in newtons per unit of width required to extend a representative test
piece of light conveyor belting by 1 % of its original length
Note 1 to entry: The force is represented by the symbol k and, consequently, the elastic modulus is represented by
the symbol k . This value is also called the “tensile force for 1 % elongation per unit of width” or “k value”. It is
1 % 1 %
expressed in newtons per millimetre.
Note 2 to entry: In EN 10002-1:2001, the symbol k is used to represent the coefficient of proportionality.
3.3
relaxed elastic modulus
elastic modulus of a light conveyor belt after being cycled between
predetermined limits of extension for 500 cycles
Note 1 to entry: The k value of a new convey
