Use these diagrams to estimate
the rough dimensions of the
conveyor.
Example:To transport
300 t/h of gravel with
a volume weight of 1,6 t/m3,
transport distance L=100 m,
lifting height h=30m

Figure 1.
Belt speed and width
1 To choose the conveyors width and the belt speed, calculate volumeflow Q
Vas follows:
2 Calculate lifting angle
3 Calculate belt width B and speed V from Figure 1.
4 Calculate power requirement of conveyor P. This is the sum of powerrequirement caused by the transport distance P1, Figure 2, andpower requirement caused by the lifting height P2, Figure 3.
P =P1 +P2 =7,5 kW +27 kW =34,5 kW
Choose 37 kW for power output of motor.
Kamet bel t conveyors are based ontwo frame types:
- Low model, cold-rolled U profile 250 x 75,largest support interval 6 m.
- High model, cold-rolled Z profile 650 x 80,largest support interval 20 m. Larger supportintervals also possible.
Arched and service elements are suitable forboth types.
Choose B =650 mmV =1,5 m/s
Q v = m3/h =187,5 m3/n3001,6
=sin-1( ) =sin-1( ) =17,5hL
