torque calculation on a conveyor

torque calculation on a conveyor

(OP)
Hi!!
I have a roller type conveyor table consisting of 12 roller and i want to calculate the torque needed to move a europalet of 2000Kg weight. The conveyor's dimensions are: length=2500mm, width=1500mm. The roller dimensions are: length=2500mm, D=88.9mm. I want to calculate that torque, so as to compare it with the motor's torque and see if my motor is able to rotate the rollers or i have to get a bigger motor.  
Can anyone help me??
