Investigation on Conveyor Belt Materials for Real-time Terahertz Imaging Monitoring

Terahertz (THz) imaging is a potential approach for real-time security and industry quality checking, here a conveyor design based on real-time THz imaging is presented. Five different types of conveyor belt materials have been tested, the results show that both PVC and PU are suitable as low loss belts materials, the thinner belt is preferred as long as it can support sufficient sample weight on it.
