Systems for automatically leveling a base frame of a bulk material transport conveyor include radial travel wheels mounted on generally opposing sides of the base frame that can move from a raised position above the ground to a lowered position in contact with the ground to permit radial travel of the conveyor. Actuators normally used to raise or lower the radial travel wheels may be actuated automatically by a controller in response to a signal from an inclination and/or limit sensor mounted on the conveyor that represents a non-level orientation of the conveyor, to level the base frame.

Conveyor leveling system

Systems and methods for automatically leveling a base frame of a bulk material transport conveyor include raising or lowering either or both radial travel wheels mounted on generally opposing sides of the base frame. Actuators normally used to raise or lower the radial travel wheel actuators may be controlled in response to inclination and/or limit sensors mounted on the conveyor.
