Abstract
Belt slippage on drive drums of belt conveyors is generally considered as an undesirable phenomenon, which has a huge influence on wear of the drive drum lining or its destruction, reduces the operability of the entire device and should be then completely excluded from belt conveyor operation. Belt slips in the start-up phase can be long- or short-lasting with slight differences in speeds of the belt and drive drum and therefore cannot be registered. So it in necessary to seek options to avoid slips in a controlled start-up of belt conveyor. The paper suggests the effects of conveyor input parameters on the occurrence of those negative slips.
