# Industrial Specification: Infeed Conveyor

## 1. Technical Definition
A conveyor system component designed to receive and transport raw materials or workpieces into an industrial processing system.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 m/s belt speed, 50-5000 kg/m linear load capacity**. Failure boundary: **Belt tensile stress exceeding 25 MPa (EP400 belt material yield point), bearing temperature exceeding 120°C (grease breakdown threshold)**, Mechanism: **Material fatigue from cyclic loading at belt splice joints (stress concentration factor Kt=3.2), lubricant film breakdown at bearing Hertzian contact pressure &gt;1.5 GPa**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Tractive Power & Resistance Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = \frac{F \cdot v}{\eta}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Ensures motor torque capacity exceeds operational inertia.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| F | Total Tractive Resistance | Engineering Constant |
| v | Belt Speed | Engineering Constant |
| \eta | Efficiency | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Material accumulation exceeding 15% of roller diameter | 8 | Roller bearing seizure due to radial load exceeding C0 static load rating | Install self-cleaning spiral rollers with 30° helix angle and automated purge system |
| Belt misalignment exceeding 3% of belt width | 8 | Edge damage propagation at 0.5 mm/hour wear rate leading to tensile failure | Implement laser alignment sensors with PID-controlled steering rollers (response time &lt;100 ms) |

## 3. Key Technical Parameters
| Parameter | Value | Unit | Status |
