Posted in: , on 28. May. 2011 - 04:40

7675.5602m long tubular belt conveyor is possible?

The pipe belt conveyor:

1. Horizontal length 7675m7015m;

2. Lifting height 10m;

3. Conveying capacity 1200t/h;

4. Conveying materials Caol;

5. Packing density 0.9t/m3;

6. Pipe diameter 400mm;

7. Belt velocity 5m/s;

8. Driving arrangment Two drive pulley at tail and Two drive pulley at head.

Is the layout of 7.6km pipe belt conveyor possible

The main parameters of the pipe belt conveor is as:

1. Horizontal length 7015.5980m (option one);7675.5602m (option two);

2. Lifting height 10m;

3. Conveying capacity 1200t/h;

4. Conveying material Caol;

5. Material size:70mm;

6. Bulk density 0.9t/m3;

7. Pipe diameter 400mm;

8. Belt velocity 5m/s;

Option One:L=7015.5980 H=10

. Continuous clockwise curve:19.94(+)+53.70(+)+28.88(+)=102.52°.

2Total clockwise curve:102.52+21.36=123.88°.

3Continuous anticlockwise curve:23.48(-)+53.09(-)=76.57°.

4Total anticlockwise curve:76.57+25.76=102.33°.

5Total curve angle123.88(+)+102.33(-)=226.21°.

6Balance curve angle:123.88(+)-102.33(-)=21.55(+).

7Because total continuous clockwise curve angle is 102.52°,maybe the pipe belt could be twisted and could not be adjisted. Maybe the pipe belt could be twisted over 720°. The pipe belt could be Wrinkled.

Xinrong,

You do not offer information on the belt construction such as:

1. width

2. strength rating and safety factor

3. belt cover thickness - top and bottom

4. motor sizes and locations

5. counterweight

My first impression is the belt will take a significant twist but depends on its construction.

However, in a word, yes, you have already done it.
