Conveyor Speed Calculator

Calculate conveyor belt throughput and speed.

Belt Speed (ft/min)

Belt Width (in)

Material Depth (in)

Material Density (lbs/cu ft)

Formula

Tons/hr = Belt Width x Depth x Speed x Density / 2000

How is conveyor throughput calculated?

Multiply cross-sectional area by belt speed and material density.
