Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the position determination of an object (), which is conveyed on a conveying device (). In this process, a deviation (ΔP) between a position (P) of the object (), which is calculated with the aid of rotation signals from the drives (M) for conveyor elements () of the conveying device (), and a position (P. . . P) of a detection area (E,E) of a sensor (L. . . L) fixedly installed on the conveying device () is determined and used for calculating a corrected position (P) of the object () during a movement of the object () away from this detection area (E,E). Furthermore, a conveying device () for performing the presented method is indicated.
