Abstract
This paper puts forward the application of AMESim to a belt conveyor model. Based on discrete element method, a conveyor numerical model is studied. A belt, idler and material are represented by a spring, damper and mass. The model of function of input and linear signal source is selected to build a model of a drive system and brake system. The performance simulation on belt velocity of a inclined conveyor during starting and stopping process is carried out. A velocity test on spot for the whole operation is conducted. The simulation is compared to a velocity test on spot. The comparison study shows that both simulation and test are in good agreement.
