Discussion
Consider the following statements about belt conveyors:
1. Capacity depends on belt width, speed and load cross-section.
2. Power depends on the length of the run.
3. A plain belt can be inclined to 45 degrees with grain.
Which of the statements given above is or are correct?
Answer: B
Correct answer: 1 and 2 only
Statements 1 and 2 are correct: capacity comes from the load cross-section and the speed, and power grows with length. Statement 3 is far out - grain begins to roll back on a plain belt at about twenty degrees, and 45 degrees would need cleats or an entirely different machine.
