W =
= 68 lbs./ft. 2
.98 • .66
If W = 68 lbs./ft. 2 and the conveyor length is 26.2 ft., ST504 ST516 Roller Table is the appropriate choice according to the following table.
Determine the chain-width (C 1 ) using the dimension diagram on pages B-54 and B-55. In this example, ST510SS (NP) Roller Table chain with chain-width (C 1 ) (9.890 ” ) was deemed appropriate for conveyed objects with the above dimensions.
