Alimak operates R&D centres where we design, develop and validate our own hardware and systems. By developing key technologies in-house, we maintain control over performance, safety, quality and long‑term reliability.
We develop and manufacture many of our own critical components, including:
This approach ensures seamless integration, faster innovation cycles and solutions engineered for real‑world conditions without relying on third‑party components.

Our proprietary ALC (Alimak Lift Control) system is the brain behind Alimak performance. ALC enables advanced traffic management, group control, diagnostics and precise positioning reducing waiting times and keeping people and materials moving efficiently.
On Alimak Scando construction hoists, group control for up to six cars automatically assigns the closest car, improving logistics, productivity and site safety. We continue to develop new versions of the control system to meet future needs.
