This is more of a logic puzzle to figure out than a real world scenario. In real life you'd most likely have a VFD controlling the motor, then the motor would go into a gear box taking it from 3600rpm down to conveyor speed. A real conveyor would have an acceleration and deceleration rate programmed into the VFD most of the time too.
Thank you for good video. Is it good for conveyor motor to work in increments all the time?
I understand this video is old. However, wouldn't that be harmful to the electric motor having to start and stop under load constantly?

It's so easy, you just shift it. If you don't know how the CPU does it, IT'S YOUR PROBLEM:)
