For downhill conveyors, continuous regenerative braking operation is typically required. Here, an Active Front End (AFE) drive or alternatively a regenerative drive panel solution, using a standard 6pulse drive with separate regenerative module, is the best solution to feed back energy when the conveyor
Level Ground Conveyors. Horsepower required for conveyors transporting material on level ground 1 hp (English horse power) = 745.7 W = 0.746 kW; 1 ft (foot) = 0.3048 m = 12 in = 0.3333 yd; Lifting Conveyors. With lifting conveyors add lifting power from the chart below to the level ground power from the chart above.
Research results have shown up to a 45% noise exposure reduction for the operator when compared to a standard machine (Mining Engineering, 2011, Vol. 63, No. 7, pp. 83). SmartConveyor combines our patented dualsprocket conveyor chain, autotensioning features, and polycoated conveyor flights to improve the operating environment.
This month's Spotlight Feature Article, from the pages of the October 2013 issue of International Mining magazine, focuses on equipment and technology application for conveyors in mining. John Chadwick examines some impressive new installations and new component technologies for conveyor systems.
