My gym is quite small and it has no machines for calves.
does it have a leg press at least? If yes, then just do it on the leg press

also dumbbell calf raises are less effective, but can still work the muscle if you know how to make the mind muscle connection

sit down, place a dumbbell in between your thighs, and raise you calfs in that position.

Doing it on a smith machine is also good because it locks the movement into position.
