Clutch action can be achieved by shifting the belt to a free turning pulley or by releasing belt tension.
Screw conveyors can be operated with the flow of material inclined upward. When space allows, this is a very economical method of elevating and conveying. As the angle of inclination increases, the capacity of a given unit rapidly decreases.
