Abstract:This article presents the analysis of conveyor drive power requirements for three typical mining conveyors. One of the conveyors was found not to be able to start when fully loaded. The analysis indicates that two of the conveyors are adequately powered while one is underpowered. This was found to be primarily the result of the maximum tonnage of the two adequately powered conveyors being 1500 tonnes per hour (TPH) while the inadequately powered conveyor was classed with a maximum tonnage of 1800 TPH. It is re… Show more
