e - lection can also be made from capacity values without color, but here, the program prompts the selection based

on the ergonomic capacity value. If the desired capacity value exists, it is selected; otherwise, the closest higher capacity value

is chosen. If there are multiple capacity values for the higher capacity, the program ensures the selection of the capacity

value where the drum speed is lower, considering the physical installation location of the elevator and, most importantly, the operating

con - ditions. From the location of the selected capacity value, the bucket type and volume, chain type and pitch; and from the vertical columns, chain sprocket diameter and speed parameters are selected. Based on these parame - ters, the capacity is calculated in tons per hour (/) using equation (. Figure 3. Drive system shaft dimensioning as result of the calculation Figure 4.

If the result of the comparison is smaller than the desired capacity, then another capacity value, which is the closest higher value, is selected. If the result of the comparison is equal to or greater than the desired capac - ity, the process proceeds to the next stage. 4.3. Reducer Power Calculation The reducer power Kw is calculated from the following equation taking into account the selected capacity value and the entered shaft distance. ( The coefficient expressed in equation (, with values ranging from 2 to 2.5, is selected by the program based on the applied capacity in practice. In the Turkish mar - ket, there are reducer companies such as Nord, mak, Ylmaz, Remas, and ztekfen. Remas brand reducer data has been used as the basis for the creation of
