Reliable, trouble-free operation of continuous transport systems requires regular monitoring and evaluation of each operational indicator. Various methodologies and technologies can be used to record them. Particularly advantageous evaluation technologies are those which allow the transport system to be monitored to the widest extent, in the easiest way to identify adverse parameters or locations of occurrence of undesired operational conditions. Such methodologies include acoustic visualisation techniques. Despite their undeniable advantages and great potential in the field of belt conveyance, they have been used only minimally. The paper presents a research that examines possibilities of using acoustic visualisation techniques in belt conveyance with focus on selected functional parts.
