Fuel Systems - Services

Engineering

Quantum has in-house capabilities to design and develop advanced composite gas or gaseous fuel storage vessels or varying sizes, operating pressures and service conditions. Teaming with the customer, we deploy best practices in technology development and project execution based on specifications, verification and validation plans and milestones.

We use numerical methods including finite element analysis and other simulation tools to analyze product designs prior to investing in prototype development. Our in-house material testing laboratory can characterize new materials.  Quantum is fully equipped to service our customers - automotive OEMs, fleets, aerospace and military.  

Systems and Modules

Quantum designs and develops fully integrated "plug-and-play" modules for customer specific applications. Teaming with the customer, we jointly deploy best practices for packaging, mechanization, routing of tubing/plumbing, determine frame strength for crash survivability, and perform verification and validation.

We design compressed natural gas and hydrogen systems for automotive, aerospace and stationary applications.    

Fuel Lines

Quantum designs, develops and manufactures high pressure gaseous fuel lines for CNG or H₂ applications. Our experience and capabilities making low and high pressure lines are as follows: 

• Stainless steel, low-carbon steel, and aluminum tube cutting with end deburring and squaring
• Rubber and steel braided hose cutting
• Double flaring/ beading tube end forms
• Computer automated tube bending on Eagle Eaton Leonard CNC bender; empty and mandrel bending
• Precision Orbital welding
• Leak testing tubes, hoses and fittings up to 7,200-psi
• First articles burst testing of tubes, hoses and fittings up to 40,000-psi
• Pressure cleaning station: 30 to 100-psi H₂O pressure, 0 to 110-psi air flush
• Labeling and final assembly stations; Par flange capabilities
• 1/8" to 1" O.D. up to 12' lengths
• Tube routing verification with multi-system 5000 Vector machine; accuracy within +/- .001"

We are a leading provider of computerized, automated tube bending, hose crimping and assembly services.

We provide an one-stop solution for a wide range of high pressure fluid or gas applications.

We provide complete engineering and manufacturing services for design, development and validation testing.
