This section is used to display roll specific outputs that may be useful during the design and evaluation of the idler set and each roll. The outputs are described below:

•Roll RPM – This is the revolutions per minute of each roll given the conveyor speed and roll diameters

•Roll Rotating Weight – This is the estimated rotating weight of each roll.

•Estimated Seal Drag – This is the estimated seal drag as defined by the CEMA universal method for each roll.

•Estimated Speed Factor – This is the estimated speed factor as defined by the CEMA universal method for each roll. This defines how the roll drag increases with speed.

•Estimated Load Factor – This is the estimated load factor as defined by the CEMA universal method for each roll. This defines how the roll drag increases with load.

•Roll Length Under Belt – This is the calculated length of the roll that is underneath the belt.

•Material Width Above Roll – This is the calculated length material that is above the roll.

•Force from Material Weight on Roll – This is the calculated load on the roll due to material weight.

•Force form Belt Weight on Roll – This is the calculated load on the roll due to belt weight.
