Although use of conveyors in industry is significant, good and comprehensive literature from the topic is not available. Now based on 20 years of teaching experience and 25 years of conveyor designer experience I have written the book. In the book following conveyors are covered: chain conveyor, screw conveyor, elevator, belt conveyor, and locker belt conveyor. In the book is explained use of bulk material conveyors, structures, operation, and as main topic design with calculation guidelines and in addition there is practical examples from every conveyor. In design and examples are included in addition to normal capacity and power calculations also structural design and dimensioning of axles and bearings and belts, chains, chain wheels and so on. From some of the examples also assembly drawings and technical drawings are made. The book is written primarily to engineer level designers and in general to conveyor manufacturing companies. The book is also suitable for mechanical engineer students.

This book is a comprehensive, practical guide and reference to today's mechanical conveyor systems. It covers all types of mechanical conveyors, providing in-depth information on their design, function and applications. More than 180 photographs and schematics illustrate details of design and system layout. An introductory chapter provides an understanding of the characteristics of various types of bulk solids, including their conveyability and the types of conveying systems most effective for each. Following chapters examine each of five major categories of conveying systems, with practical details on their design, operation and applications. The final chapter presents basic information on motors and drives for conveying systems, as well as related equipment such as speed reduction systems and conveyor brakes. The emphasis throughout the text is on practical engineering and operating information, with a minimum of theory. The presentation is systematic and organized for easy reference. A very detailed index enables the quick location of needed information. This guide and reference will be useful to all engineers and other personnel involved in the continuous movement of bulk solids. It serves as both a basic introduction and a desk-top reference.

This is probably the first book in 40 years to comprehensively discuss conveyors, a topic that seems mundane until the need arises to move material from point A to point B without manual intervention. This book gives industrial designers, engineers, and operations managers key information for determining which type of conveyor to purchase and how to use it to meet their transport needs. It discusses requirements for specific products or materials and environmental factors, including extreme temperatures. Each chapter covers a specific type of conveyor including chain, belt, and gravity varieties, highlighting the primary features such as load capacity and rate and operation.

This book describes all parts of belt conveyors, their functions and different types presented one after the other with necessary illustrations covering all the basic aspects so that the reader can obtain an overall understanding of their operation and implementation within the field of bulk material handling, mining and mineral processing. Dedicated study of this work will also enable engineers to carry out minor repairs on their own without having to wait for maintenance personnel. This is an introductory preliminary book for beginners in the field of bulk material handling, mining and mineral processing, written in lucid, easy-to-understand language, well-illustrated, and with self-explanatory descriptions that do not compromise in maintaining academic standards while dealing with the subject matter. A salient feature of this book is that all the new terminology used to describe the components and their functions has been included and explained. Much of the content of this book has been tested and evaluated positively by graduate and postgraduate students and professional engineers of several bulk material handling plants during training programs over the last twenty-five years in India.

This practical book is tailored for engineers working in the industry, and condenses more than a decade’s worth of application experience on furnaces. The various topics discussed include conveyor furnaces, belt furnaces, solar cells, brazing furnaces, thick film furnaces, and furnace air flow and reflow. There are chapters on the influence of belt furnace and firing on silicon solar cells, thin film CIGS solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, crystalline solar cells, and lithium ion batteries, as well as how the processes affect the efficiency of each. The authors also address the influence of belt furnace on various processes such as metallization, engine valve heat treatment, brazing, post mold curing, and glass-to-metal sealing. The last few chapters also address Direct Bond Copper (DBC) technologies, and the effect of profile and atmosphere on the reflow process.
