Popis: The paper shows the results of researching the rollers used in belt conveyors working in a hard coal mine. Rollers should be characterized by low rotation resistance, which results in low power consumption of the propulsion unit. The tests conducted aimed to assess the technical condition of the new C-type rollers after several years of operation in a hard coal mine. The research was carried out from the new approach to the standard issues of roll testing and verification in a hard coal mine. Laboratory tests were combined with testing the entire belt conveyor in terms of power demand. The research was carried out for 3 years and it was monitored how the dynamic resistance of the working rollers changed and how this translates into the power demand consumed by the belt conveyor in a hard coal mine. The aim of the research was a new approach to the research of rollers used in conveyors operating in a mine.
