About ConvCalcs

Who built this

ConvCalcs is built by Akitha Medagoda, a mechanical and automation engineer with drive sizing experience at SEW-Eurodrive.

The calculators are meant for quick, transparent preliminary sizing of conveyor drives: every input is explained, every formula is shown with your numbers, and the motor and gearbox suggestions follow the rules of thumb used when selecting real gearmotors.

They use simplified methods for unit-handling conveyors. For final selections, always check the motor, gearbox and chain against the manufacturer's data.
