Abstract: This paper study the optimisation techniques by using numerical method for analysing selection problems, choosing the size, length and angle of inclination for the conveyor belt roller of conveyor five rolls to obtain the maximum material transfer rate. The mathematical model is formulated as nonlinear programming. The Lagrange multiplier technique is used to solve the solution. The numerical result shows that setting trough set angle number two (λ₂) twice as trough set angle number one (λ₁) yields the maximum material transfer rate.
