Belt conveyors have attained a dominant position in transporting bulk materials due to such inherent advantages as their economy and safety of operation, reliability, versatility, and practically unlimited range of capacities. In addition, they are suitable for performing numerous processing functions in connection with their normal purpose of providing a continuous flow of material between operations. Recently, their conformity to environmental requirements has provided a further incentive for selection of belt conveyors over other means of transportation.
