Analysis of M-212 Conveyor Belt Modification at Raw Material Warehouse

Abstract

This study discusses the effects of the modifications to the conveyor belt on the Warehouse loading system according to CEMA standards. In this case, the specifications observed are belt width, idler selection, and material cut area. Then from the calculation of these specifications it can be calculated the performance of the conveyor belt in the form of carrying capacity, tensile force and power used on the M-212 conveyor belt in accordance with CEMA standards. The results of the analysis in this study showed that there was a reduction in the capacity of the M-212 conveyor belt after the modification. In addition, this modification also has an impact on the power required. After the modification, the required power usage is reduced from the initial 4 hp to 1.44 hp.
