The capacity of a belt conveyor depends upon two factors. If one is the cross-section of the load, the other is the _____________ of the belt?
Correct answer: A. Speed
- A. Speed
- B. Thickness
- C. Length
- D. None of these
Explanation
Belt-conveyor capacity equals the cross-sectional area of material on the belt multiplied by belt speed. For a given load cross-section, increasing speed directly increases capacity.
