Question
To design a flat belt conveyor to transfer roof tile of a single storey house. Your design criteria should be as follows:
- Motor selection – electrically / engine operated
- Belt length, width, thickness
- Pulley and shaft sizes
- Gear reduction / transfer gear box
- Angle of inclination of your belt line
- V belt for pulley
- A mobile belt design with stands
- You determine the height of system
- Raise / lower using power screw or gear (if any)
Introduction
Belt conveyor is rubber or textile structure with a belt shape closed ring. It is with vulcanized or metallic joint, used for material transportation. Belt conveyors are usually most used for transportation of solid objects and bulk materials at great speed with great distances. In my survey, mobile belt conveyor is one of the best material handling solutions for stacking any kind of bulk material when various materials has to be handled in various locations.
- High Capacity loading hopper;
- Fully tracked for on-site mobility;
- High capacity stockpile volume;
- Radial movement for bigger stock capacity;
- Remote control;
- Hopper capacity up to 10m3;
- Tracks with rubber shoes;
- ATEX zone electric equipment
Furthermore, the radial mobile belt conveyor is one of the most cost efficient and effective ways of material stockpiling. It is so mobile that it can be shifted anywhere with minimum effort.
