The aim of the conveyor systems belt is the transport of various goods of material in small
or big distances. The size and the type of material vary and it can be homogenous or heterogeneous.
Distance of transport can be from few meters up to enough kilometers. Today we can find
conveyor belts of length until 8 km single while in Africa someone can find conveyor belts of
total length 100 km to be composed from individual departments.
The dimensions of the conveyor belts are manufactured in this way so as to cope with the
transport of material with big hypsometric differences with relation of length and height up to
2:1 for their small length and 10:1 for their big length. Nowdays technology allows transport of
big carriages weight that can reach also the 40.000 or even 50.000 m3/h and speeds that exceed
the 5m/s.
