796LS CAPACITY
The drive capacity accepted is 15 lbs. per roller. The type of package and/or material being conveyed may increase or decrease this capacity. Very hard, rigid, flat bottom containers increase roller capacity while soft, uneven surfaces will decrease it.
 ROLLER CENTERS
The number of rollers required per package is dependent upon package weight, package length, drive capacity per roller, and type of surface. The package formulas (at right) should be used to determine the maximum allowable roller centers. Use the lesser of the two values rounded to the nearest standard roller centers.		 package weight formula
+ Length of package (in inches)
÷ Weight of package 
= Subtotal
× 15 # (Drive capacity of rollers) 
= Maximum Roller Centers

package length formula
+ Length of package (in inches)
÷ 3 
= Maximum Roller Centers
