Introduction
This manual starts with the assumption that you have already determined which type of Mathews chain driven live roller conveyor you require. A chain driven live roller conveyor is a conveyor where the product rides directly on the carrying rollers. These carrying rollers have sprockets welded to them, which in turn are powered by a chain. This manual will explain the various types of Mathews chain driven live roller conveyors manufactured by Mathews. In this manual we will describe the following types of chain driven live roller conveyors: 1. Single Strand Chain Driven Live Roller 2. Roller to Roller Chain Driven Live Roller In this manual, you will note that we are depicting standard units, illustrating the components from which they are assembled, as well as offering a description of these various components. Also included are descriptions of supports and accessories for each type of conveyor. Due to the physical design of the chain driven live roller, we will be referring to two different types of conveyor width. These are Effective Conveying Width and the Between Frames Dimension. See the drawing below: For the various sizes of CDLR, the width of the chain box will also vary and the effective conveying surface will always be less than the between frames dimension. When selecting equipment, be sure this aspect has been considered. In order to properly evaluate chain driven live roller, we will break it down into the two types, single strand chain driven live roller and roller to roller chain driven live roller.

Product Weight
A check should be made concerning the product weight by taking the various product weights divided by 2/3 of the number of rollers under the product and compare the capacity per roller for that width. 1.90 Dia. x .148 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 17 23 29 35 41 Effective Conveyor Width 15 21 27 33 39 Roller Weight w/o Axles 4.1# 5.4# 6.8# 8.2# 9.5# Roller Capacity w/B1020 Bearing 310 310# 310# 290# 254#
Also note that the frame capacity for single strand CDLR is 100 pounds per foot.
Product Loading
The maximum load that the conveyor will encounter (live load) is a major factor in determining the drive and motor requirements. The conveyor loading, expressed in pounds per foot, can be obtained by any of the following methods. 1. Divide the total maximum load on the conveyor by the conveyor length. T otal load on conveyor ( lbs ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Length ( ft ) 2. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at a given rate, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight, product rate, and conveyor speed. P rod Wt ( lbs ) Prod Rate ( ctns min ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Speed ( ft min ) 3. When the product is back to back on the conveyor, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight and product length. P rod uct Weight ( lbs ) ------------------------------------------------------------ = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Product Length ( ft ) 4. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at an uneven rate, the conveyor loading can be determined by taking the maximum weight that the conveyor must handle in one minute and dividing by the conveyor speed. Product Weight ( lbs min ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Speed ( ft min ) Always consider the worst loading condition that the conveyor will be subject to in order to determine conveyor loading. In order to determine actual chain pull and HP requirements, use the following procedure.

Note: Select (1) one of C573 End Drive and (1) one C127 End Unit or (1) one C571 Intermediate Drive and (2) two C127 End Unit and Curve quantity (if required). Dead Load2 (DL2) = Total Dead Load of Drive and End Unit(s) + Dead Load of Curves (if required) = Dead Load (Part 2) = DL2(lbs.) DL1 + DL2 = B (Total Dead Load)

Inclines (D)
The maximum recommended incline for chain driven live roller conveyor is 5 degrees. It is advisable to conduct a test to insure a particular product will convey on an inclined unit. Additional chain pull is generated by elevating the product and can be calculated two ways. 1. Total Live Load on Incline (lbs.) x Sine of Angle = Additional Belt Pull (lbs.) 2. The second method can be used for uniformly loaded conveyors. Average Live Load (lbs./ft.) x Rise in Elevation (ft.) = Additional Belt Pull (lbs.) The increase in chain pull generated by an incline is not affected by the coefficient of friction.
Sines of Various Angles Angle 1 2 3 4 5 Sine .02 .04 .05 .07 .09
Deflectors (E)
Deflectors add to the chain pull due to the force required to slide the products off the conveyor. For each deflector add 30% of the weight of the heaviest product being deflected, to the chain pull. Number of Deflectors x Heaviest Product (lbs.) x .30 = Additional Chain Pull (lbs.)

Horsepower Calculations
The required drive horsepower may be calculated as follows: Effective Chain Pull ( lbs ) x Conveyor Speed ( FPM ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ = HP 33,000 Reducers have inherent inefficiencies, due to design.

G =
Example: Product size - 24" Square Plywood Pallet Weighing 500 lbs. The weight would put it into the 1.90" dia. roller category and in consideration of product width characteristics for straight conveyor, the approximate effective width would be 24" + 3" = 27". Reviewing the specifications for 1.90" dia. CDLR, the closest standard effective width would be 26-3/4" with a between frames dimension of 30". With this in mind, the constant outside radius for the 1.90" dia. roller style CDLR is 65-1/8". 65-1/8 - 30 = Inside Radius of 35-1/8. Using the above formula G ( Eff Width ) = = = = ( 35.125 + 24 ) 2 + 24 2 ( 35.125 2 ) 2
= 60.3 33.1 = 27.2 Our initial assumption was correct. If it were not, we would probably check out the next larger standard width unit.

Product Weight
1. Roller Selection and Spacing: Many products have rigid bottoms or conveying surfaces and more often than not they are not exactly flat. This is especially true when dealing with CDLR, since it is probably handling heavier products, which require more rigid containers. In order to compensate for this, it is advisable to figure that only 2/3 of the rollers will support the full weight of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to take the weights of the various products being conveyed and divide by 2/3 of the rollers under the product to determine the required capacity of the roller. Example: 19" long product weighing 80 lbs. 19 long product ---------------------------------------------- = 6.33 roller centers 3 Rollers The closest standard will probably be 6". Therefore, there are three rollers under the product, 2/3 x 3 = 2 roller supporting 80 lbs. 80 lbs. 2 rollers = 40 lbs. per roller required capacity. If you are not able to find a roller with the required capacity, it may be necessary to provide rollers on closer centers. Always consider the worst loading condition that the conveyor will be subject to in order to determine roller spacing. 1.90 Dia. x .109 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 Roller Capacity w/B1020 Bearing 310# 310# 310# 310# 310# 304# 286# 269# 2.50 Dia. x .120 Steel Roller Between Frames Dimension 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 Roller Capacity w/B1060 Bearing 610# 610# 610# 610# 610# 596# 591# 555#

2. Frame Selection: In order to simplify selection, roller and frame combinations have been selected that offer compatibility in size and capacity. Having determined the roller size, you will find that roller in a specific frame and you will need to confirm that this frame has the required capacity. You need to determine the total load on the conveyor at the worst loading condition and check the frame capacity chart on pages H-27, H-33, H-39, or H-45 depending on the different roller series CDLR. The frame must be able to support the combined weight of the rollers/axles, the live load and any other devices which are to be mounted. 3. Support Selection: You will note that the capacities for the frames are based on support centers either 5'-0" or 10'-0". In some instances, it may be more economical to stay with a smaller roller and increase the number of supports to achieve the desired capacity. When selecting the supports, be sure to include the weight of the frame plus rollers, along with the live load for capacity ratings of the supports. Note that the nominal height is to the bottom of the conveyor frame rail.
Product Loading
The maximum load that the conveyor will encounter (live load) is a major factor in determining the drive and motor requirements. The conveyor loading, expressed in pounds per foot, can be obtained by any of the following methods: 1. Divide the total maximum load on the conveyor by the conveyor length. T otal load on conveyor ( lbs ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Length ( ft ) 2. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at a given rate, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight, product rate, and conveyor speed. P rod Wt ( lbs ctn ) Prod Rate ( ctns min ) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Speed ( ft min ) 3. When the product is back to back on the conveyor, the conveyor loading is a function of product weight and product length. Product Weight ( lbs ) ---------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Product Length ( ft ) 4. When the product is introduced to the conveyor at an uneven rate, the conveyor loading can be determined by taking the maximum weight that the conveyor must handle in one minute and divide by the conveyor speed. Product Weight ( lbs min ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Conveyor Loading ( lbs ft ) Conveyor Speed ( ft min ) Always consider the worst loading condition that the conveyor will be subject to in order to determine conveyor loading. In order to determine actual chain pull and HP requirements, use the following procedure.

3. The pull required to turn each roller results from a combined rolling resistance between the roller and bearing and roller and load. 4. The chain transmission factor is constant. 5. The conveyor is horizontal and level. 6. Loads are not rubbing guard rails or chain box.

This type of release allows the exit of product in a progressive fashion with the issuance of a maintained electrical signal. A gap (approximately equal to the zone length) is generated between articles.
HB-828 - 12/03
Application Information
In order to ensure actuation of the sensing rollers, the product to be conveyed must present a firm flat bottom surface to the conveyor rollers. In the case of pallets, at least one continuous bottom member must run the entire length of the pallet. The standard zone lengths are 5-0 and the maximum length for conveyed product should be 12 less than the zone length (6 less for CFC II only). The minimum length of a product to be conveyed is dependent upon the roller centers. For proper conveying at least three rollers should be under the article at all times. In the case of totes with sloped ends, the top and bottom dimension should both be taken into consideration. The minimum article weight is limited by the4 sensitivity of the sensing device. For CFC Series II, 15 lbs. minimum; CFC Series III, 30 lbs. minimum and CFC Series IV, 50lbs. minimum is required to actuate the zone sensing device. Mathews CFC Series II, III and IV use low pressure, non-lubricated dry air from 15 to 30 p.s.i. for its air logic control and actuation of the low pressure air clutches.

Combination Starters
As the name implies, combination starters put together in one enclosure an externally operable disconnect switch, fuses and either a reversing or non-reversing magnetic starter. This form of control eliminates the field wiring required by the separate fused disconnect used with the standard version of magnetic starters. The combination starters are listed in both (NEMA 1) standard duty enclosures (NEMA 12) heavy duty, oil tight/dust tight industrial enclosures. Size 1 starters can handle a maximum of 71/2 HP at 200/230 volts and 10 HP at 460/575 volts. To supply the proper starter, both the operating voltage and horsepower of the motor must be furnished.
HB-828 - 12/03
Standard voltages, which can be furnished, are 200, 230, 460 and 575. Above units are available with separate 120 volt operating coil, add suffix S. Transformers for other starter coils are available by adding suffix T. Above starters include two pushbutton stations.

Motors
There are three basic types of motor enclosures: 1. Open The motor windings can be seen through the vents at the end of the motor. 2. Totally Enclosed The motors are completely encased in a metal enclosure. 3. Explosion Proof The enclosure of the motor will withstand an explosion from within itself and will not allow sparks or hot gas to escape into the surrounding atmosphere. Explosion proof motors are further rated by class and group by the National Electric Code according to the environment in which they are designed to operate. Class I Hazardous Vapor Group C - Ethers, Alcohols, etc. Group D - Petroleum Base Hazardous Dust Group E - Metal Group F - Carbons Group G - Grains
Class II
There are three designations required when specifying the power source an A.C. motor is to operate from: 1. Phase - Three or One 2. Frequency - Hertz
3. Voltage - Volts Common single phase voltages are 115 and 230. Common three phase voltages are 208, 230, 460 and 575. Motors for 230 or 460 volt applications normally are supplied as dual voltage, (i.e. 230/460). When specifying motors, the single voltage which will be used to operate the motor must be stated if the proper controls for starting and stopping the motor are to be selected. Motors are commonly mounted by two principle means, foot mounted or C-face. Foot mounted is nothing more than a set of mounting feet which are welded or otherwise attached to the bottom of the motor. C-face mounting consists of a cast ring or collar on the end of the motor with four mounting holes which allows the motor to be attached to a reducer, machine, etc.

Gear Reducer
A reducer is a device which converts a high RPM with low torque (usually supplied by a motor at the reducers input shaft) to a lower RPM with higher torque on the reducers output shaft, which is connected to the conveyor drive. Reducers are generally selected based on the amount of the horsepower to be transmitted and the amount of reduction in speed that is required. Terminology used in speed reduction is ratio. Ratio is the rate of the output speed as compared to the input speed. Typical ratios are 10:1, 40:1, etc. If an 1800 RPM motor is coupled to a 40:1 ratio reducer, the resultant output speed would be 1800 divided by 40 which equals 45 RPM Manufacturers rating tables are used to select a reducer with the proper horsepower rating. Gear reducers are generally grouped into two categories, parallel shaft and right angle shaft. The determination is made by the position of the output shaft relative to the input shaft. If the output shaft is in position parallel to the input shaft, then the gear reducer is termed a parallel reducer. If the output shaft is in a position forming a right angle to the input shaft, the reducer is termed a right angle reducer. The most common mounting arrangement for reducers is foot mounted. This consists of a set of feet, with holes in them, that are attached to the reducer. With this arrangement, the reducer can be bolted to any flat surface. Since the reducer requires oil to lubricate the gears, it is necessary to know whether it is intended to be mounted with the feet up and the reducer below, such as a ceiling hung mounting position or with the feet down and the reducer above them, which would be termed a floor mounted position. Another important consideration in gear reducers is how the motor will be attached to the reducer. One simple means is to foot mount the reducer and foot mount the motor at relative positions so that the output shaft of the motor is aligned with the input shaft of the reducer. A suitable coupling can then be used to connect the two. An alternative approach is to use a C-face motor and C-face reducer. Remember that a C-face motor has a ring or collar on the end of the motor with four mounting holes. Reducers can be purchased that have a corresponding collar around the input shaft of the reducer. A plastic collar couples the output shaft of the motor to the input shaft of the reducer and when the motor and reducer are bolted together, it encloses the coupling eliminating the need for a guard. Because of the popularity of C-face motor reducer combinations when they were originally introduced, manufacturers carried that concept forward with the introduction of the integral gearmotor. An integral gearmotor is a motor and reducer or gear box, cast into one housing. Basically, the motor is made open ended on the end next to the gear box and the gear box has a flat plate and collar to accept the motor. This eliminates the need for C-face rings on the motor and reducer and therefore is more economical. The disadvantages of the integral gearmotor is that if either the motor or reducer fails, both have to be replaced since it is an integral unit. In the case of a C-face motor and C-face reducer, if the motor fails, only the motor has to be replaced. If the reducer fails, only the reducer has to be replaced.

Brakes
The most common types of brakes used with motors are spring set/electrically released type. This is a disc type brake, that when power to the motor is eliminated, a spring sets the brake to stop the rotation of the motor. When power is applied to the motor, the brake is released by an electrical solenoid. Brakes are sized in terms of the torque they produce. Normally, for a holding brake such as is used on a conveyor, a brake should be sized 3 ft. lbs. per horsepower or as an example, a 3 ft. lb. brake is used for a 1 horsepower motor and a 6 ft. lb. brake for a 2 horsepower motor.
Clutch Brake
A clutch-brake is a device that is mounted between the motor and the reducer. With a clutch-brake, the motor runs continuously. When the conveyor is to start, the clutch is energized and the brake is released. When it is desirable to stop the conveyor, the clutch is released and the brake is applied. Clutch-brakes require a special power supply and controlling device. This controller allows the force between the clutch discs and brake discs to be varied. This provides a means of adjusting the starting and stopping motions of the conveyor from soft to violent. Three phase motors with brakes generally can be started and stopped up to six times per minute. For applications requiring more starts and stops per minute, a clutch brake should be used.

Electrical Enclosures
Standards for the manufacture of electrical control devices have been agreed on by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association or N.E.M.A. N.E.M.A. has established various classifications for enclosures or boxes enclosing push buttons, motor starters, photoelectric cells, etc. A numbering system is used to describe these enclosures, and the following are some of the more common that you will encounter. 1. N.E.M.A. Type 1 - Surface Mounting (General Purpose Sheet Metal) Type 1 enclosures are intended for indoor use, primarily to provide a degree of protection against contact with enclosed equipment in locations where usual service conditions do not exist. The enclosure is sheet metal and treated to resist corrosion. 2. N.E.M.A. Type 4 (Water Tight) Type 4 enclosures are intended for in-door or external use primarily to provide a degree of protection against wind blown dust and rain, splashing water, and hose directed water. They are designed to meet hosed down, dust, external icing and rust resistance design tests. They are not intended to provide protection against conditions such as internal condensation or internal icing. Enclosures are made of heavy gauge stainless steel, cast aluminum or heavy gauge sheet metal, depending upon the type of unit. The cover has a synthetic rubber gasket. 3. N.E.M.A. Type 7 and 9 (Explosion Proof) These enclosures are intended for indoor use. N.E.M.A. type 7 is normally used in atmospheres that contain hazardous gas and will be used in areas that correspond with Class 1, Group C and D motors. N.E.M.A. type 9 would normally be used in atmospheres that contain hazardous dust and would be used in conjunction with motors that are classified as Class II, Group E, F, and G. 4. N.E.M.A. 12 (Industrial Dust-Tight) These enclosures are intended for use indoors to protect the enclosed equipment against fibers, flying lint, dust and dirt and light splashing, seepage, dripping and external condensation of noncorrosive liquids.
Limit Switches
Limit switches are switching devices which are actuated by a machine motion striking a lever on the switch. The lever causes an electrical contact to operate which causes some other action to happen.
Selector Switches
Selector switches are similar to a push button except the operator rotates the switch as opposed to pushing down on the switch to cause an electrical contact to operate.
Photoelectric Relays
Photoelectric relays are a no touch switching device. This is a device which operates an electrical contact when a beam of light is broken.
HB-828 - 12/03
Solenoid Valves
A solenoid valve is an air or hydraulic valve combined with a solenoid. The solenoid is a magnetic coil which is turned on by a switching device or logic device. When the coil is turned on, it causes an armature to move and push a plunger in one direction or the other. The plunger and the solenoid shifts a spool in the valve to cause a different flow path for the air or hydraulic fluid.
Air Controls
Air control used on conveyors normally consist of valves and filter-regulators which may be used to raise and lower stops and transveyors or perhaps to actuate some other divert mechanism. A filter-regulator-lubricator is a combination of three devices. The filter cleans the dirt and grit out of the air, the regulator regulates the pressure in the air line and keeps it below a certain maximum pressure. The lubricator squirts oil into the air passing through it. This lubrication is used to lubricate the valve and cylinder which is normally connected to the filter-regulator-lubricator.
