HELIX delta-T - Design of Belt Conveyors
WINDOWS 95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP
HELIX delta-T is a powerful computer software package developed to assist
materials handling design engineers and equipment suppliers with conveyor design
and optimisation. Helix Technologies' research and development of this software
began in 1992 and delta-T now has many users throughout the world who depend on
the program to provide consistent, accurate and cost effective belt conveyor and
material handling designs.
Highlights of the new delta-T version 5 program include:
 -
Automatic Selection of Belt and Tension, Power Calculations
- Equipment Selection from Databases for Belts, Idlers, Pulleys & Shafts,
Gearboxes, Motors, Fluid Couplings, Brakes etc.
- Create a 3D model of the conveyor
- Calculate Vertical Curve radii and super-elevation (banking) angles for
Horizontal curves
- Add any number of Conveyor Pulleys, Drives, Loading points, Trippers, Brakes
etc.
- Over 60 reports can be viewed, printed or exported to Word, PDF files or Excel
etc.
Helix delta-T has been used as the design tool and proven in many hundreds of
real conveyor installations in more than 25 countries around the world for than
10 years. The latest version Helix delta-T 5 brings you even more power and
flexibility in your conveyor designs.
The program will automatically calculate the belt tensions in the system, select
a suitable belt from the database, calculate the pulley and shaft sizes
required, select a suitable electric motor, fluid coupling and gearbox from the
databases, calculate the idler shaft deflections and bearing life and then
present the full conveyor design in reports which can be viewed, printed or
exported to Word for Windows®, Excel®, PDF® files and other applications.
Belt tensions can be viewed graphically, and the Calc section provides useful
procedures for calculating discharge trajectories, vertical curve radii and
other frequently performed routines. Context sensitive on screen Help will guide
you through the operating procedures and provide the formulae used in the
calculations.
 You
can also create and view a 3D model of the conveyor and merge in a digital
terrain model. The program also allows you to dynamically calculate vertical and
Horizontal curve geometry for the conveyor.
In addition, delta-T provides an in-depth analysis of conveyor belt tensions
under different operating conditions such as running fully loaded, running
empty, starting fully loaded, starting empty, braking fully loaded, braking
empty and coasting. A new sketch facility allows users to sketch the conveyor
profile and enter data in tabular format.
Delta-T will save you time and reduce your plant capital, maintenance and
operating costs!
New Features in delta-T version 5
- Powerful OpenGL 3D modeling of the conveyor and terrain
- Completely New design report formats - over 50 reports can be generated
easily, with excellent presentation of the design.
- Belt Tension calculations for Running, Starting and Braking including
accelerating and stopping times.
- Calculation to ISO and CEMA standards with auto friction factor calculation.
- Bar and 3 D line graphs of belt tensions under different loading and starting
and braking conditions.
- Improved Braking calculations including a Brake database and Brake Selection
routines.
- Improved equipment database for Belts, Idlers, Motors, Gearboxes, Fluid
Couplings, Brakes etc. Copy and Paste data from Excel.
- New Database system compiled directly into the program - this eliminates
previous issues with the MS MDB files system.
- Ability to import or copy and paste data directly from Excel spreadsheets to
conveyor design or equipment databases.
- New Sketching facility to quickly add pulleys, hoppers and drives to your
conveyor
- New scale drawing system for live feedback on Vertical curve radii - just drag
an intersection point on the screen and the vertical curve is redrawn in front
of you so that you can see immediately if you can fit the radius into the
geometry.
- New Horizontal Curve Calculation routines - belt drift and banking angle
calculations, with live on-screen feedback about radii.
- Completely New design report formats - over 50 reports can be generated
easily, with excellent presentation of the design.
- Export design reports directly to MS Word® Excel® or PDF® file formats plus
others.
- Improved Belt Selection routines with diagrammatic feedback on belt width vs.
load area and edge distance.
- Estimating and Costing schedules for all conveyor equipment from civil &
electrical to conveyor components.
- New comprehensive instruction and context sensitive help files
- New Belt Feeder / Hopper pullout calculations.
- Software Operation & Technical conveyor Design support.
Differences Between Versions: - Lite version can calculate up to
200 tonnes per hour and one drive pulley.
- Standard version can calculate up to 1000 tonnes per hour and one drive
pulley.
- Professional version can calculate unlimited tonnes per hour and drives.
The software includes a years updates, maintenance and support.
