Quantum have specialized screw conveying systems installed in chemical, mineral as well as the food and beverage industries. Our designs cater for stainless steel, mild steel with liners and special steel for abrasive materials, through to fully polished, sanitary clean down applications requiring full clean out and knock down construction. Materials handled can be micro powder to granular and lumps. The selection and type of conveyor recommended is critically dependent on the material to be conveyed.
Conveying and Transfer Conveyors:
Quantum manufacture a standard range of screw conveyors incorporating intermediate center bearings or center less screw conveying for difficult sticky materials. Length of conveyors and size of conveyor depends on capacity and material characteristics.
Inclined and vertical conveying:
Quantum have designed and installed both vertical and inclined screw conveyor systems. It is recommended to design all incline conveyors without using an intermediate bearing, if possible and to keep incline to less than 75o for optimum efficiency. Whether your application requires a tubular inclined conveyor or trough conveyor, Quantum will select the most suitable conveyor for your application that is suited to the material characteristics, environment, length conveyed and your specific needs such as clean down and residue. Efficiency of vertical conveyors can be as little as 10% and generally require specific design considerations; the nature of material and feed method. Our engineers can assist with the best and most suited conveyor for your needs.
Horizontal transfer conveyors
A single conveyor can incorporate several hanger bearings over length in access of 100m. However length is very much dependent on the nature and characteristics of the material and the conveying capacity. Some materials cannot be successfully conveyed using any hanger bearings, whilst other materials will accommodate several hanger bearings trouble free. We has a general rule of maximum conveyor percentage full by volume be no more than 40% when using hanger bearings with no more that 1mm/m deflection of center pipe. Quantum design all conveyors for full load start up with much consideration given to conveyor speed to eliminate excessive wear. All our conveyors are designed with gland seal packing to protect spherical bearings.
Hopper and Live Bottom Bin dischargers
Our hopper and Bin dischargers are used when non free flowing materials need to be discharged from hoppers or storage bins. Size and quantity of screws depend on the hopper configuration and the material characteristics. Using multiple screw dischargers can increase volume of hoppers whilst ensuring a positive discharge of material at a controlled out feed. Each screw can be independently powered or interlocked with one or two drive assemblies depending on loading and capacity of the system.
Generally installed with slow speed counter rotating screw flights that can be over locked for maximum discharging capabilities they are variable pitch or variable flight diameters to ensure even material discharge across hopper.
Heating and Cooling Jackets
All Quantum Screw Conveyors can be fitted with heating and cooling jackets utilizing steam, thermal liquids, refrigerant, water or brine. Heating or cooling can be designed by our process engineers who will recommend the most suitable size and type of conveyor for your production and needs.
Clean Design
Quantum is familiar with the specific needs of the food and beverage industries. All our Screw Conveyors can be fitted with CIP spray balls and manifolds, with quick knockdown in mind to ensure complete clean-down where required. Screw Conveyors can be constructed from mild steel, 304 or 316 stainless steel, depending on the material being conveyed. Surface finish will be provided to suit specific requirements. All components such as IP ratings of electric motors and switches are selected with these specific requirements in mind to ensure compatibility with your operating procedures.

Mergers and acquisitions have become the general trend of the Chinese auto industry, but FAW Group's restructuring of Brilliance Automotive will not be a successful case of it.
In the Chinese auto industry nowadays, the rumor of reorganization is like an entertainment star's scandal. The poor Brilliance car has become the object of many large car companies competing to show love.
The last one to throw hydrangea to Brilliance Automotive was FAW Group. According to sources, FAW Group will enter into Huachen Automobile and achieve control by purchasing the shares of the Brilliance Group, or adopting state-owned assets allocation.
However, this matter has not been confirmed by both parties. Brilliance China’s largest listed company, Brilliance China (01114.HK), issued an announcement saying that there are currently no negotiations or agreements related to the acquisition or sale. Bing Yumin, chairman of Brilliance Automotive Group, has repeatedly stated that Brilliance Automotive will develop independently.
However, one thing is certain. For Brilliance Motors, which is still small, it is necessary to continuously expand its own production and sales capacity in order to maintain its independent and independent development status.
In the past three years, Sui Yumin’s “multi-flowering†strategy has established an annual output of 150,000 Chinese cars, 120,000 Jinbei Haishi commercial vehicles, 44,000 BMW Brilliance BMWs, and 150,000 A-class vehicles. Production bases and plans to expand production at BMW Brilliance and Jinbei Vehicle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will also build a new plant with an annual output of 210,000 vehicles in Mianyang, Sichuan Province. If this plan can be achieved, the total production capacity of Brilliance Automotive will increase from the current less than 500,000 to 800,000. To achieve this goal, Brilliance Automotive must continue to invest. However, after three years of rapid expansion, Brilliance Automotive lacked a lot of money.
Although Brilliance Automotive achieved a 19.6% year-on-year increase in the first five months of this year, sales reached 122,000 units. However, since most of these sales were contributed by small vehicles such as Junjie FRV with weak profitability and Jinbei minicars, the actual profitability has not been improved.
At the same time, under the influence of the global financial crisis, Brilliance China, Jinbei Automobile and Shenhua Holdings, three of Brilliance’s listed companies, basically lost their financing capacity. At the end of last year, Brilliance Automotive Group also injected capital of 500 million yuan to Huachen China to reduce its liabilities and supplement its cash flow.
In this case, GAC Group, which holds huge amounts of cash, became the first object of Brilliance’s car. The ambitious Southern Auto Company has been looking for acquisitions to quickly increase production capacity. However, there is no such thing so far. It has been reported that the reason for the suspension of negotiations between the two parties is that Brilliance Automotive insists on its own development.
Similarly, FAW Group's purpose in reorganizing Brilliance Motors is also to increase its scale. This old company headquartered in Changchun, Jilin was once the largest auto group in China, but after being surpassed by SAIC in 2005, this year it was overtaken by Dongfeng Motor Group (from January to May) and it has just fallen into the third place in China. Dazhou Automobile Group urgently needs to increase its production capacity through mergers and acquisitions and become China's largest automaker.
However, mergers and acquisitions and restructuring do not add capacity. Liu Zhigang, president of Brilliance Automotive Sales Co., Ltd., said that any reorganization between enterprises must see whether reorganization has any benefit to the brand, technology, and cost.
From the brand point of view, FAW Group already has two independent brands, Red Flag and Pentium. The demand for China Brilliance’s Chinese brand is not so urgent. In addition, since Brilliance Automotive has learned more from the German automobile manufacturing process, the Pentium brand enjoys Japanese automobile manufacturing technology, and it is difficult to reduce manufacturing costs through parallel production.
At the close on June 22, the stock prices of three listed companies under Huachen Motors, which clarified the reorganization rumors, all fell. One China Brilliance China closed at 0.95 yuan, the day fell 6.683%.
Guoxin Junan’s automotive analyst Zhang Xin said that there are more speculations about the rumors of the acquisition of Brilliance by FAW Group. “Investors should have enough vigilance.â€
