How to Calculate Number of Rollers Required
Length of Conveyor x 2 ÷ Roller Spacing = Number of Rollers per Conveyor (round up to the next number)
Example: 45 feet x 2 ÷ 4 feet = 25.5 Rollers
How to Calculate Chain Speed in Vehicles per Hour
There are 3600 seconds in an hour
The travel distance that is considered “one vehicle” is 20 feet.
Number of Seconds ÷ 20 feet of Chain Travel = Chain Speed
Example: 3600 Seconds in an Hour ÷ 70 Seconds for Chain to Travel 20 Feet = 52 Vehicles per Hour
The following is to be used only as a guide. Actual spacing is typically site-specific.
