Combination of welding outlet and flange Nipoflange in pipeline construction A nipoflange is used in pipeline construction just like a welding outlet or a nipple outlet for a 90 ° branch. A Nipoflange is a combination of welding outlet, nipple outlet and flange. Further terms for Nipoflange are Weldoflange or Flangeolet. Two different branch sides On the pipe branch side , a nipo length has the shape of a welding outlet. This means that the branch from the pipe is made with a welded joint. There is a flange on the connection side, ie a flange connection is created. The flange can be designed according to customer requirements (usually according to DIN or ANSI). Nipoflange as a forged fitting A nipoflange (similar to ANSI B 16.9 / MSS-SP 97) is usually made from a forged blank. This means that a Nipoflange is a forged fitting and has no welds.

Swept outlet similar to ANSI B 16.19 / ANSI B 36.10 Swept outlets in pipeline construction A swept outlet is used in pipeline construction just like a welding outlet, a socket welded outlet or a threaded outlet for a 90 ° branch. A swept outlet is an alternative to the T-piece / red. In comparison to the T-piece / Red.Tee, the installation effort for a swept outlet is lower because only one hole has to be drilled into a pipe. The swept outlet can then be welded into this hole. A swept outlet differs from a welding outlet in the type of welding. While a welding outlet is only placed on the run pipe and then welded, a swept outlet is welded directly into the run pipe. Ideal stress distribution Swept outlets were developed in order to achieve the best possible stress distribution for internal pressure and pipe forces. Due to the favorable voltage level, swept outlets are often used in highly stressed pipes in the oil and gas industry.

We manufacture ready-to-install standard and special flat gaskets in large and small series. Depending on the area of application, different materials are used. Flat gaskets are mostly static and are mainly installed between two flanges in apparatus and pipeline construction. Depending on the quantity and size, the most economical manufacturing process is used.

KB Schmiedetechnik GmbH in Western Germany has decade long experiences in the production of forgings for the energy market. Examples: •Forgings for nuclear power plants and hydrogen technology •Forged valve parts for nuclear and hydrogen applications •Forges components for nuclear fission and fusion reactors •Non-standard flanges and fittings of stainless steel like 316L or duplex •Special materials resistant against neutron or hydrogen embrittlement •Acid-resistant forgings for molten salt applications like fluid reactors or solar thermal power plants. In addition to this KB hold 5 certifications for the international maritime industry: •American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) •Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore (BV) •Det Norske Veritas (DNV) •Lloyds Register (LR) •Nippon Kaiji Kyōkai (ClassNK) Examples are forged parts for industrial valves, boiler and pipeline construction. This includes various valve components, pipe connecting elements and special flanges.

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.

We develop and manufacture special seals for power stations, for the chemical and petrochemical industries, for machinery and pipeline construction. In other words, seals that provide the greatest possible reliability even under extreme operating conditions (pressure, heat, cold, aggressive media) – at temperatures from -200 to +1.000 °C. Product Range: - DVGW tested, see separate brochure - Punched, cut seals - Plates, foils - Semi-finished items - Form articles Benefits: - Highest chemical resistance - Insoluble and does not swell in organic or anorganic solvents - Resistant to the weather - Temperature range -190 to +250 °C - Highly anti-adhesive, does not stick - Resistant to hydrolysis Common fillers: - Quartz - Glass - Carbon / Graphite - Bronze - or without filters Fillers reduce the cold flow, lead to higher resistance to temperature and media, improve thermal conductivity and increase resistance to abrasion and pressure levels.
