The world spends about $600 million USD annually on new and replacement belt conveyors for bulk material handling. When factored for total belts in use, this represents 30-40 billion kW-hrs per year. Prudent design can reduce Total Life Cycle Cost (TLCC), equipment and operating cost, by 30-40%, depending on the installation configuration.

The standard belt conveyor has a lower capital cost than vibrating-trough conveyors but costs more to operate and maintain over the long term, especially in sanitary handling applications. This is because cleaning material carryover off the belt (even a sanitary belt) is more difficult than cleaning a trough, and removing the carryover requires ...

May 08, 2021 Estimated operating maintenance cost per year for a belt conveyor is 2% of the purchase cost plus 5% of the belt cost. Belt replacement is on average every 5 years for hard rock applications and up to 15 years for non-abrasive applications. Well maintained conveyor systems can reliably operate at 90% or higher availability. Types of Belt Conveyor
