Equipment General Description:
Horizontal screw conveyors are the most widely used type of Screw Conveyor. Used to convey bulk materials from one part of a process to another, horizontal screw conveyors are available in a wide range of sizes, lengths, configurations and materials of construction.
Quantum has extensive experience in the correct selection and design of screw conveyors, screw dischargers, hopper unloading and screw metering systems. Whether your process and application requires mixing during conveying, dewatering, batch metering interlocked to weigh system or conventional transfer conveying we have the experience and standard equipment to ensure you have a reliable trouble free installation.
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. IBS 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. We 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.

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
We are familiar with the specific needs of the food and beverage industries. All IBS 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.
