Seamless pipe machinery
DANIELI Centro Tube, part of Danieli
Group, constructs machinery and
turnkey plants for the supply of seamless
pipe, mainly for the petroleum, energy
and mechanical industries.
The company’s equipment and
technologies allow it to meet the
demand for increasing seamless pipe
quality requirements. It is able to cover
plants up to one million tpy, from 1" to
28", including finishing lines and single
equipment.
Danieli Centro Tube guarantees top
process technology and mechanical
design of main machines in pipe plants,
and is able to offer a complete package
(mechanical, electrical, automation and
reheating systems) under the same
management, with the consequent
advantages in coordination through all
stages of the project up to the closing
stages of commissioning.
Danieli W+K completes the supply
programme for pipe production of Danieli
& C with its portfolio in the (LD) welded
pipe plant. The consolidated design of
the German company with the Danieli
group sales and service network and
through the worldwide manufacturing
facilities creates a wider offering, from
single equipment to turnkey projects
including finishing lines.
The new Danieli portfolio for pipe
plants now includes ERW lines for
pipes up to 26"; longitudinal SAW lines
for pipes up to 64"; and spiral SAW lines
for pipes up to 120".

Pumps and valves
for added safety
KLAUS Union Corporation was founded
in 1946, in Bochum, Germany. The
company holds numerous patents and
stocks a versatile range of pumps and
valves.
The company mainly supplies to the
petrochemical and chemical industries,
which expect a high quality of products
and services.
Particularly when aggressive, toxic
and explosive products are pumped, no
compromises are allowed with regard
to quality, service life and safety. Klaus
Union guarantees operational reliability
and environmental protection to all
stakeholders.
In 1955, Klaus Union developed the
first magnetic drive and presented it
to the world at ACHEMA in Frankfurt,
Germany. The company states that
this magnetic drive is still considered
one of the most secure sealing
systems. Thanks to the magnet drive
in combination with an isolation shell,
which prevents leakage of the pumped
liquid to the atmosphere, shaft ducts,
stuffing boxes or mechanical seals have
become obsolete.
Since then, the company has
developed titanium pumps and other
magnetic systems, and has expanded
its product range from the main products
of gate, globe and check valves to
additional valve types like overflow
valves, bottom valves, y-type strainers
and sight glasses.
The Klaus Union product range
consists of pumps and valves for almost
any industrial sector. Applications
involve refrigeration and heat
engineering, power plants, liquid gas
plants and electroplating. Corrosion-
resistant materials, often including
alloys on a nickel or titanium base,
constitute the basis of all products,
together with steel and stainless steel.
Due to the provision of materials to a
wide range of industries, quality control
is extremely important, and Klaus Union
has a sophisticated internal quality
management system that ensures high
levels of safety in each product that the
company produces.
Klaus Union Service GmbH was
established as a separate entity,
specifically to increase the efficiency of
the provision of customer service. This
branch allows the company to extend its
service to include training programmes
and seminars that reflect reality and not
theory.
