Selection and power calculation of motors for chain plate conveyors? Method for calculating the reduction ratio 　　 1. Calculation method based on the motor specifications of chain conveyor: Reduction ratio = Input speed ÷ Output speed. 　 2. General calculation method for the motor of a chain conveyor: Reduction ratio = Applied torque ÷ 9550 ÷ Motor power × Motor power input speed ÷ Application factor. 　　 3. Calculation method for the motor gear train of a chain conveyor: Reduction ratio = Number of teeth on the driven gear ÷ Number of teeth on the driving gear (In the case of multi-stage gear reduction, multiply together the values obtained by dividing the number of teeth on the driven gear of each pair of meshing gears by the number of teeth on their driving gears). 　　 4. Calculation method for the motor belt, chain, and drive wheel reduction ratio of chain conveyor: Reduction ratio = diameter of the driven wheel ÷ diameter of the drive wheel. The formula for calculating motor power is as follows: P = F × v ÷ 60 ÷ η. In this formula, P represents power in kW, F represents traction force in kN, v represents speed in m/min, and η represents the efficiency of the transmission mechanism, which is usually around 0.8.
