Q:

Which of the following is false about conveying systems?

A) An essential factor to consider before choosing the right conveyor system is the environment of operation B) Conveyors cannot be used as feeders
C) The composition of the material being conveyed is very important D) The surrounding temperature is one of the deciding factors
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Conveyors cannot be used as feeders

Explanation: A conveyor can be used as a feeder also. The feeding action is more time sensitive and precise than the conveying action. The tumbling effect of a conveyor also becomes very crucial during the feeding action.

Q:

Which of the following is false about conveyors?

A) Cleats can be used to prevent slipping B) Backstopping brakes are used for straight belts
C) Anti-static belts are used when electric components are conveyed D) Soft starters avoid overloading the motor
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Backstopping brakes are used for straight belts

Explanation: Heavily loaded conveyors that are inclined, are prone to getting slipped backward and therefore, the backstopping brakes engage automatically with the de-energization of motors. Cleats are used to create separation between the products being conveyed and prevent slipping as well.

Q:

Which of the following is a correct description about the different types of conveyors?

A) Belt conveyor transports material in any direction B) Slat conveyor requires high maintenance
C) Vibrating conveyor can convey materials of any friction factor D) Screw conveyors usually handle lightweight materials
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Belt conveyor transports material in any direction

Explanation: One of the major advantages of a belt conveyor is that, it can carry bulk materials in any direction. Slat conveyors are highly reliable and require low maintenance. In a vibrating conveyor, the material being carried should have a high friction factor with respect to steel so that, the conveying action can be transmitted throughout the material. Screw conveyor usually carries bulky materials.
