Since then Alimak has delivered a number of permanent elevators to the company which operates a total of five sites in Germany. The Dormagen Chemical Park near D\u00fcsseldorf occupies six square\u00a0kilometres\u00a0of land and no less than 6,800 people are employed there.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the new \u201cB655\u201d building at Dormagen the plant management chose a goods and passenger elevator from the Alimak range of rack and pinion elevators. The elevator is needed to transport bags with plastic granules as well as personnel. The staff work in three shifts and the elevator is used an average of 5\u201410 times per shift.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The elevator travels a total of 14.5 meters in an open steel structure. Apart from the base station there are four upper access levels to the adjacent building. The landing levels have manually operated double-leaf doors which are mechanically and electrically interlocked.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the Alimak Rack and Pinion elevator does not need any elevator shaft, no such provisions had to be made which saved costs and simplified the planning process. The Alimak rack and pinion elevator system offers a wide range of car sizes for lifting capacities between 300 kg and 7,000 kg. The car that Bayer AG chose to use in Dormagen is 1.43 m wide x 2.99 m deep and operates with variable frequency drive, the travelling speed being 0.6 meters per second.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DETAILS&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Location: Bayer AG chemical plant, Dormagen, Germany&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Application: Steel tower&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elevator type: Rack and pinion&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elevator model: Alimak GP 20 FC\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Capacity: 2,000 kg&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elevator car size: 1.43 m x 2.99 m (W x L)&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speed: 0.6 m\/s <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. of landings: 5\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lifting height: 14 m&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">GALLERY<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"600\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/?attachment_id=600\" class=\"wp-image-600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"602\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-2.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/?attachment_id=602\" class=\"wp-image-602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-2.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-2-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"262\" height=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"603\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-3.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/?attachment_id=603\" class=\"wp-image-603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-3.jpg 262w, https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/11\/Bayern-AG-Gallery-module-3-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":601,"menu_order":36,"template":"","meta":{"_trash_the_other_posts":false,"editor_notices":[],"footnotes":""},"project-category":[],"region":[266],"industry":[12],"class_list":["post-598","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","region-europe","industry-chemical"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Bayer AG chemical plant - Alimak Malaysia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/alimak.com\/my\/project\/bayer-ag-chemical-plant-dormagen-germany\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Bayer AG chemical plant - Alimak Malaysia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"An external Alimak freight elevator with 2,000 kg payload capacity has been installed at the Dormagen plant of Bayer AG, Germany, one of the world\u2019s biggest chemical groups.&nbsp; More than 35 years ago, Bayer bought their first Alimak rack and pinion elevators for permanent installation on a\u00a0chimney at their main site in Leverkusen.
