Abstract
A system and a method for operation management of a conveyor belt capable of accurately determining an operational state of the conveyor belt while having a simple configuration. A detector disposed at a predetermined detection position of a conveyor device transmits a transmission radio wave toward an IC tag of a passive type installed at a conveyor belt. A computation device calculates a running speed of the conveyor belt based on reception time when the detector receives a return radio wave returned from the IC tag in response to the transmission radio wave. An operational state of the conveyor belt is determined based on a change over time in the running speed. The computation device transmits data of the change over time in the running speed to a terminal device at a position away from an installation site of the calculation device through a communication network.
