KB Schmiedetechnik GmbH is a drop forge in West Germany, located between the historic “blade & metal region” Solingen-Remscheid-Wuppertal and the “Borussia soccer city” Dortmund, specialized in small series production of safety-relevant closed die forgings from 200g to 130Kg unit weight of all steel grades and alloys according to following certifications and standards: pressure equipment: valves, boiler systems, piping PED 97/23/EG, AD 2000-W0, ASME/ASTM, CNIM, Alstom, MHPS nuclear power/ atomic energy and plant construction KTA3201.1, KTA1401, AVS D 100/50, Siemens, EDF/Areva/RCC-M naval architecture/ shipbuilding and offshore/ ocean engineering, certified by •American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) •Bureau Veritas (BV) •Det Norske Veritas (DNV) •Lloyds Register (LR) •Nippon KaijiKyōkai (ClassNK) Examples: components and equipment like brackets, holders, chain links, hoists, lifting hooks, fasteners, pressure-bearing parts like valve bodies, pipe connections, and more.

Forged components for nuclear reactors, boiler systems, piping Valves are pivotal in various industrial contexts. Forged parts designed for nuclear reactors, boiler assemblies, pipeline construction, and safety valves are crucial elements in various industrial applications. Safety valves, typically pressure relief valves, stand out as paramount safety features within most systems. Their primary function is to safeguard pressurized vessels like steam boilers, reactor vessels, and pipelines from potentially hazardous pressure surges. In the event, that pressure exceeds safe limits, these valves release trapped gases, vapors, or liquids either into the atmosphere or into designated manifold systems. The West German drop forge KB Schmiedetechnik GmbH in Hagen (NRW) boasts decades of proficiency in crafting drop-forged components tailored for pressure applications compliant with the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and for nuclear facilities adhering to KTA, AVSD, and RCCM standards.
