MOTOR SELECTION for BELT-CONVEYOR DRIVES Abstract—Rated power is the motor parameter always specified when motors are selected for a belt conveyor—motor slip is usually ignored. This paper shows how the running and starting characteristics of a belt conveyor are influenced by slip. It shows that high-slip motors improve load sharing between directly coupled motors, and it shows that high
Motor selection: Optimizing belt drives Conveyor systems with CAN network are be-coming ever more popular. The reason is the flexibili-ty and simple controllabili- ty of several drives, which the network system pro-vides. It is expected that the systems can be flexibly adapted to a certain extent, whether in terms of speed or the loads that are to be transported. This also ap-plies to the
Tech Tip: Chain and belt drives are so common on conveyors that it probably should have been included even in this “basic” reference. The calculation is actually quite simple. If the speed reduction of the chain or belt drive is N:1, then the gearmotor output speed should be N times the speed calculated for the conveyor roller and the torque output should be 1/N times the torque calculated

A motor drives the chain, which causes it to cycle just as belt conveyors do. Instead of a rubber belt, this conveyor type uses slats connected to a chain, providing a rigid, flat surface for every item on the conveyor. This makes slat conveyors ideal for irregular shaped products that cannot / are unsuitable to be used on rollers or belts . These conveyor systems are usually powered and come

07/02/2003 There is a strong trend for variable speed fixed conveyors to be driven by a three-phase AC motor working with a variable frequency drive (VFD.) The use of DC motors to drive variable speed belt conveyors is declining because of the lower motor and control cost and high reliability of the AC motor/VFD concept. See figure 13. Designers of long overland conveyors have also adopted the AC motor

10/05/2019 The ideal location for the drive of a belt conveyor is the place which minimizes belt tensions both during the acceleration and running periods. Although circumstances may dictate that a drive be located somewhere between the ends of a conveyor, locating it at the head end when the conveyor has to be powered to drive it is preferred. In the case of a conveyor going down-hill where
