Conveyor Sizing Calculator

Tell us what you're moving. We'll recommend the conveyor type, pitch, belt width, and approximate horsepower — based on the same calculations our engineers use internally. Estimates only — final specs come from your quote.

Your application

Approximate is fine.
ft
ft
How high it dumps. Use 0 for horizontal.
°F
Avg surface temp on the belt.

Drive & layout

Right-angle is the most common Transcon drive; in-line is ~25% more efficient and reduces required motor HP.
Curves add a 12% correction factor to belt pull.
FPM
Leave blank to use the default for your pitch.
