Information
Required
The following information is required in order
to design, construct and operate a working scale
model of a transfer chute.
Design data
 |
- Head pulley diameter
- Belt width
- Belt thickness
- Incoming belt speed
- Load-out belt speed
- Conveyor inclination angles
- Ore particle size
- Ore bulk density range
- Ore moisture range
- Throughput in tph.
- Belt loading factors
- Troughing angles
|
Drawings
Drawings of the proposed or existing chute
are required, so that scale model can be constructed.
These can be transmitted electronically in any
standard drawing format. Alternatively, hard
copies of drawings can be sent by mail.
Background to the proposed design
What types of problems have been experienced
with this chute in the past? What are the critical
features of the chute function? Has there been
any change in the ore type?
Photographs
If the chute is an existing one, it can be very helpful to have photographs of the salient
features of the chute in order to ensure that the modelling process is duplicating the
existing behaviour.
