Caman Engineering Pipeline Flanges for the Mining Industry

Caman Engineering manufactures pipeline flanges from locally produced forgings for the petrochemical and mining industries.

We offer a wide range of steel valves, heat exchanger tubes, nozzles and pipeline flanges.

Caman also imports an array of job-specific components such as specialised flanges, tube sheet blanks, dished heads, fittings and large forgings.

Stainless-steel, forged steel and cast steel valves for the mining sector

Caman offers valves with sealing options such as EDDM, viton, nitrile, Teflon and metal seated for fire-safe, high-temperature and chemical applications.

Our portfolio includes:

• Gate valves
• Globe valves
• Check valves (swing, wafer duo, wafer single disc and piston)
• Ball valves: reduced and full bore (1,2,3 piece ball, 3-way L port and 3-way T port ball)
• Butterfly valves (wafer and lugged)
• Needle valves
• Y strainers
• Actuation (electric, double action pneumatic and single return pneumatic

We also offer electric and pneumatic actuation with accessories such as limit switches and solenoid valves.

We also have an extensive library of data sheets covering our entire range, providing additional information on materials, capabilities and dimensions.

Heat exchanger tube sheets and baffle plates

Caman is an approved manufacturer and supplier of pipeline flanges and heat exchange components to all mining companies operating in Australia.

We are also accredited to comply with Quality Assurance Standard ISO 9001 by Lloyds Register-certificate number 400278, and Workcover Australia certificate number MMT/33/96.

In addition to all commonly used flanges, we specialise in stocking flanges to suit heavy wall pipe / high-pressure petrochemical applications.

All forged flanges stocked are supplied by leading manufacturers and fully approved by all major oil, petrochemical, mining and contracting companies.

Pipeline flanges for the mining industry

Caman manufactures a wide range of components for the mining sector, including:

• Pipeline flanges to Australian, US, British, Japanese and European specifications
• Orifice flanges and orifice plates
• Special pressure vessel flanges
• Long weld neck flanges
• Heat exchanger tube sheets and baffle plates
• Spectacle blinds
• Forged pipe fittings
• Hydro test blinds
• Subcontract machining

The following flanges are imported and stocked by Caman:

• Carbon-steel forged flanges to ANSI B16.5 specification
• Mild and stainless steel plate flanges to AS2129 and AS4087 specifications
• Stainless-steel forged flanges to ANSI B16.5 specification
• Carbon-steel forged flanges (large diameter) to BS3293 specification
• Carbon-steel forged flanges (large diameter) to ASME B16.47 Series A and B

Caman also imports large forgings, special flanges and tubesheet blanks.

Large forged nozzles

Caman’s capabilities include machining large forged nozzles on vertical borers.

We manufacture these nozzles from imported and locally sourced forgings.

In addition, the company has seven vertical borers with a maximum turning capacity of 2,650mm diameter by 1,900mm high.

Large tube sheets and baffle plates for mining

Caman provides large tube sheets, which are produced by a specialised computer numerical control (CNC) drilling machine.

We also offer baffle plates for applications in heat exchangers to complement our tube sheets. Baffle plates are stack drilled together on our CNC machining centre using special tungsten carbide drilling components.

Baffles are available from 2,000mm in diameter and are drilled with 2,858 holes.

Long weld neck nozzles, radius end nozzles and orifice flange sets

Caman manufactures flanges ranging in sizes up to over 2,500mm in diameter.

We produce weld neck orifice flange sets for metering applications and stainless-steel orifice plates that insert between the two flanges.

Caman manufactures radius-ended nozzles to suit mounting on a vessel side. Machining is performed on a state-of-the-art CNC machining centre using tungsten carbide or ceramic cutting tips.
