KEY Step 3 Determine throughput required (m 3 /hr) 950 900 You can establish the throughput you require of your conveyor using the simple formula below. To calculate this step you will need to know the mass of material you want to move per hour and the material’s density. 850 tonnes/m 3 = throughput of Now that you have established the throughput and desired angle of your conveyor, use the chart opposite to work out the conveyor size and belt speed you require. With our worked example we have a throughput of 58m 3 /hr and a conveyor angle of 20°. This means that the conveyor size we need is an EASIKIT 600 with a belt speed of 0.7m/s. (Indicated by dotted line on chart) Please note that these calculations do not include EASIKIT300. 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 EK900 - 0.93 EK900 - 0.7 EK900 - 0.3 EK600 - 1.16 EK600 - 0.93 EK600 - 0.7 EK600 - 0.3 EK450 - 0.84 EK450 - 0.64 700 2 650 600 550 3 500 450 Step 4 Choose conveyor size & belt speed EK1500 - 1.16 EK1500 - 0.93 EK1500 - 0.7 EK1500 - 0.3 EK1200 - 1.16 EK1200 - 0.93 EK1200 - 0.7 EK1200 - 0.3 EK900 - 1.16 750 tonnes/hr ÷ m 3 /hr 1 800 Worked Example 70 tonnes/hr ÷ 1.2 tonnes/m 3 = throughput of 58 m 3 /hr Your Solution 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1000 5 400 6 350 9 300 10 12 11 13 14 16 15 17 18 7 250 4 200 150 8 100 50 0 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 Conveyor
