Let Check Out Motor Sizes, Belt Type and
Brakes
Our Belt is 503 lbs per inch width (the way belt strength is measured) – it runs a 88% of ratedStrength. We have a 250 HP motor that runs at 72% of name-plate
This shows the stress profile onThe belt over the entire length
![Page 3: Design of Belt Conveyors Step #3 Checking Out the Power ©2012 Dr. B. C. Paul Note – Material in these slides include screen shots from the program “Belt](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f485503460f94c6a64b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Belts That Roll Up and Down are Tricky
There maximum stress may not occur atThe drive pulley and may move aroundDepending on how the belt is loaded.

We Will Have The Computer Check Horsepower While the Belt Loads
and Unloads
I went to the motor tab
I drop the EditMenu
I Select Loading
On the side ISelect Carry
On the sub-subMenu I order toLoad up and thenUnload the belt.
![Page 5: Design of Belt Conveyors Step #3 Checking Out the Power ©2012 Dr. B. C. Paul Note – Material in these slides include screen shots from the program “Belt](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f485503460f94c6a64b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Step By Step Simulation Sets Up
I have ordered it to pause if IOverload by motor, belt, orTake-up so I can see theCondition and take action.
![Page 6: Design of Belt Conveyors Step #3 Checking Out the Power ©2012 Dr. B. C. Paul Note – Material in these slides include screen shots from the program “Belt](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f485503460f94c6a64b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
It Steps Through Loading and Unloading
![Page 7: Design of Belt Conveyors Step #3 Checking Out the Power ©2012 Dr. B. C. Paul Note – Material in these slides include screen shots from the program “Belt](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f485503460f94c6a64b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
During Load On Simulation
My motor which had a steady state loadOf 72% reached 92%
My belt which had an 88% steady stateLoad at one point reached 97%
I did not need brakes at any point.

I Simulate the Conveyor Unloading
Again everything checks outOk

Lets Check Out Only Inclines Loaded

We Could Try Some Other Things
• If this were a decline I could play with temperature since it impacts friction
• What happens if I get sloppy on my maintenance with rollers and alignment?
• What happens if I end up with about the same volume on the conveyor but I end up cutting a lot of roof?

On material tabSet Density to reflectHigh roof rock content
Set the tons per hour to reflect whatYou think you would produce if youWere cutting a lot into roof.

A Side Comment
• Sometimes for long runs of big lifts (such as a slope) you may need to dual drive– Dual drives allow you more wrap than you can
get with one drive– Can also spread out your motor horsepower
• If the drive motors are together at one service location the secondary drive motor will be much lower HP than the primary
![Page 34: Design of Belt Conveyors Step #3 Checking Out the Power ©2012 Dr. B. C. Paul Note – Material in these slides include screen shots from the program “Belt](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f485503460f94c6a64b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
If You Need to Go Dual Drive
On profile if you click insert drive it will put in a 2nd (or 3rd) drive

Now to Include You• Your Unit Project
– Your coal mine has a slope from a depth of 800 feet.– Design a slope belt conveyor to bring up 1700 tons per
hour• Provide me with a supply list
– How much belt of what width and rating do you need?– How many carry and return idlers of what specification
and rating do you need?– What size and lagging do you need on how many of
what type of pully?– What size and speed of motors do you need.

Continued
• Explain to me how your conveyor is laid out and what you did to make sure your conveyor could handle any foreseeable duty
• Provide a copy of Belt Analyst file or files (in case you cannot get to the top with just one conveyor)
