Abstract
Systems and methods for determining the edge step and edge form of a test belt during production are provided. A gauge on a test belt provides belt edge information. A belt edge determination controller for a testing device determines the edge step and edge form of the test belt to stabilize or eliminate the steps on subsequently produced belts. The testing device includes a sensor mounted at one end of the belt module which sends sensor signals to the belt edge determination controller to determine the edge step and edge form of the belt. The belt edge determination controller then determines whether the determined edge step and edge form are appropriate for subsequent production. As the belt edge information varies, the belt edge determination controller compares the belt edge data to acceptable values and initialize the production values as the acceptable values to stabilize or eliminate the step during production
