2 All the products featured in this catalogue receive the additional reassurance of a 12 month warranty. When you purchase one of the modular EASIKIT solutions you buy an off-the-shelf, tried and tested productdesigned to offer a reliable priced solution to your materials handling unique range of conveyors allowsusers to make exactly what is requiredquickly and easily producing a reliable,compact conveyor that will give manyyears service without going to all theexpense and delay of designing a purposebuilt unit. Easikit conveyors are availablefrom stock in sections which are easilytransported and can be simply joinedtogether on site using a unique couplingassembly. Any number of sections can bejoined together to produce a conveyor ofwhatever length is required (subject to anylimitations imposed by the size of thedrive). For static installations conveyorsneed to be supported at every other jointor they can be assembled on a , 450mm, 600mm and 900mm widebelt versions are available depending onthe application and throughput required butin all cases the belt travels over the foldededge of the main frame to help preventmaterial dropping down onto the returningbelt.

5 Workedexamples are shownwhere 1 CALCULATE YOUR conveyor LENGTH4easy assembly keenest prices next day despatchSTEP 2 SELECT belt TYPE & JOINT TYPEC hoose the optimum belt type from the following options depending on your application:-PLAINA plain belt is normally suitable for conveyor angles up to 20 . However if your material is very free flowing, themaximum conveying angle on a plain belt will probably be equivalent to the angle of repose of the material (the angle that thesides of a pile of the material will naturally form).NITRILEA nitrile belt is an oil-resistant plain belt for use with sludge and other materials containing oils or chevron belt incorporates a 15mm high chevron pattern on the carrying surface and is capable of conveyingmaterials at an angle of up to 35 .CLEATEDA cleated belt is plain belt fitted with 40mm high vertical cleats at 600mm spacing. It can be used to carrymaterials at angles up to 45 .CLIP JOINTA clip joint is a straightforward and economical way to join the ends of your selected belt .

6 This joint makes iteasy to fit and replace JOINTThis type of joint is more durable and robust creating a complete endless loop. Being a loopthe belt needs to be fitted to the conveyor during 3 DETERMINE THROUGHPUT REQUIRED (m3/hr)Youcan establish the throughput you require of your conveyor using the simple formula below. To calculate this step you will needto know the mass of material you want to move per hour and the material s Exampletonnes/hr tonnes/m3= throughput of m3/hrYour Solutiontonnes/hr tonnes/m3= throughput of m3 8 AVAILABILITYCONVEYORPLAINNITRILECHEVRONC LEATED = available from stock = available on requestWorked Exampleconveyor anglePlain BeltChevron BeltClip JointNitrile BeltCleated BeltVulcanised JointYour Solutionconveyor anglePlain BeltChevron BeltClip JointNitrile BeltCleated BeltVulcanised Joint20 300450600900 MOBILE5easy assembly keenest prices next day Angle Maximum Throughput (m3/hr)key1 3 5 7 9 11 1315171921232527293133 351eK900 snub drive / snub drive snub drive / snub drive 4 CHOOSE conveyor SIZE & belt SPEEDNow that you have established the throughput and desired angle of your conveyor , use the chart below to work out the conveyorsize and belt speed you require.

7 With our worked example we have a throughput of 58m3/hr and a conveyor angle of 20 . This means that the conveyor size we need is an EASIKIT 600 with a belt speed of (Indicated by dotted line on chart)Please note that these calculations do not include 5 CALCULATE WEIGHT ON BELTNow using the belt speed established in STEP 4 you can now calculate the weight on a belt using the simple formula Example(tonnes/hr x ) m/s = kg/mYour Solution(tonnes/hr x ) m/s = kg/m6easy assembly keenest prices next day despatchEASIKIT450 EASIKIT600 EASIKIT900 conveyor length mx14 = = = +++ conveyor length m x weight on belt = = = +++ conveyor Rise m x weight on belt kg/mx20 = x20 = x20 = === belt pull requiredNNNW orked ExampleSTEP 6 CALCULATE belt PULL REQUIREDTo establish the correct motor/gearbox unit you need to calculate the Newton force required to drive your conveyor .
