PRODUCTION ESTIMATING PROGRAM (Tons) for 444 - 844J Loaders)  

ESTIMATING PURPOSES ONLY

  
  Prepared for: Date:  
   
         
  Customer's hourly production requirement  
  (input required) Short Tons (2,000 pounds / ton)  
         
  Bucket Size SAE Cubic Yards (Heaped)  
  Insert estimated SAE cubic yard bucket size      
  initially, then adjust bucket size later to meet      
  Production Requirements  
         
A. Average distance between midpoint of      
  stockpiles and hopper (input required) Feet  
         
B. Average Travel Speeds (select one only - insert "X" to select)    
  1st Gear    
  2nd Gear - lower end    
  2nd Gear - higher end  
  3rd Gear - lower end    
  3rd Gear - higher end    
         
C. Hopper selection (select one only - insert "X" to select)    
  Ground level fed - no ramp    
  Requires items D and E to be blank    
  Elevated - fed from ramp    
  Requires input in items D and E      
         
D. For elevated hoppers only      
  Length of ramp (input required) Feet  
         
E. For elevated hoppers only (insert "X" to select angle)    
  Angle of ramp less than 10 degrees    
  Angle of ramp 10 - 15 degrees  
  Angle of ramp 16 - 21 degrees    
         
F. Percent of time loader spends stockpiling and      
  other activities…not filling the hopper to meet      
  Production Requirement (requires input of 1 - 99) %  
         
G. Average material weight per cubic yard  
  Example: 2600 … do not use 2,600 Pounds / Cubic Yard  
       
     
HOURLY PRODUCTION RESULTS:    
  Maximum production for peak periods.  
  Continuous cycling to hopper. No breaks,      
  no stockpiling and no other activities Short Tons (2,000 pounds / ton)  
         
  Average production with 5 minute breaks and normal  
  stockpiling, clean-up and other activities.*      
  * Other activities may include loading trucks, watering      
  for dust control, maintaining access road, clean-up,      
  etc. Short Tons (2,000 pounds / ton)  
   
DAILY PRODUCTION FOR 8 HOUR DAY    
  Average hourly production (times 8 hours) with 5 minute breaks  
  and normal stockpiling, clean-up and other activities.*      
  * Other activities may include loading trucks, watering      
  for dust control, maintaining access road, clean-up,      
  etc. Short Tons (2,000 pounds / ton)  
         
Suggested SAE heaped cubic yard bucket size:  
1. Relates to Average Production with 5 minute breaks each      
  hour, stockpiling and other activities…not related to      
  cycling material to hopper      
2. Relates to input in yellow cells above. If requirements are      
  not met, replace initial Bucket Size input, using    
  Suggested Bucket Size as a guideline.    
  Production Requirements re-calculate with newly    
  inserted Bucket Size as soon as the cursor is moved. SAE Cubic Yards (Heaped)
