Read MoreThe standard speed for most unit handling conveyors is 65 FPM (feet per minute) which works out to the average speed a person walks when carrying a 50-pound box. This pace is ideal for many—but not all—order picking and assembly operations. There are always situations where transport through an area, into a process, or toward a packing operation can be accelerated.

Read MoreFor example, if the motor speed is 1750 rpm and the gear drive output speed is 35 rpm, the total ratio required is 50. The nominal gear drive ratio closest to the total ratio required is 40. For a 207TR, the actual ratio is 39.124. Therefore, the sheave ratio required in this case is 1.278.

Read MoreChain speed, normally calculated in feet or metres per minute, is a critical consideration in determining the conveyor capacity. It is in considering this parameter that conveyor chain pitch and conveyor chain drive and idler sprocket can be determined. fig. 5.1 illustrates the relationship between speed, chain pitch and sprocket size. The maximum recommended conveyor
