A sensing system for a conveyor having at least a first chain for propelling the conveyor is disclosed. The sensing system comprises at least a first sensor to detect each of a first plurality of chain links moving past the first sensor. The sensing system further comprises at least one processor configured to determine a count of the first plurality of chain links detected by the first sensor; determine a first elapsed time for the count of the first plurality of chain links to reach a predetermined target count; determine whether the first elapsed time for the count of the first plurality of chain links to reach the predetermined target count exceeds a first threshold time; and generate a first alarm signal if the first elapsed time for the count of the first plurality of chain links to reach the predetermined target count exceeds the first threshold time.
