KB Schmiedetechnik GmbH

KB Schmiedetechnik GmbH - a West German drop forge - forgings of all steel grades, including duplex, titanium, nickel-based, special metals, and superalloys like Hastelloy®, Incoloy®, Inconel®, Monel®, – up to 130Kg unit weight, –highly certified!

We are a drop forge in Hagen (Westphalia), located between the historic “blade & metal region” Solingen-Remscheid-Wuppertal and the “Prussian soccer city” Dortmund (Borussia), 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, specifications, and standards:

pressure equipment: valves, boiler systems, piping

PED 2014/68/EU, AD 2000-W0, ASME/ASTM, CNIM, Alstom, MHPS
