Alimak SE Industrial Elevator
The World’s Most Proven Rack & Pinion Elevator for Harsh Environments. No cables. No machine room. Just relentless performance in the face of dust, salt air, and 24/7 industrial demands.
The Standard in Industrial Vertical Access
The Alimak SE range is the ultimate solution for facilities where a commercial elevator would fail within months. Designed specifically for industrial environments, it provides safe, efficient, and highly reliable transport for both personnel and heavy materials.
Built on Alimak’s pioneering rack and pinion technology, the SE elevator is self-contained. The drive unit is mounted directly on the car itself, eliminating the need for a costly machine room and vulnerable steel cables. This makes it the ideal solution for tall structures, confined spaces, and facilities exposed to the Caribbean’s corrosive coastal climate.
Why Facilities Choose the Alimak SE
1. Immune to Caribbean Corrosion
Traditional elevators rely on steel cables that stretch, rust, and snap in high-humidity and high-salinity environments. The Alimak SE uses a galvanized steel mast and an extruded aluminum car, ensuring decades of rust-free operation in ports and coastal power plants.
3. Unmatched Modularity
No two industrial plants are the same. The Alimak SE is highly modular. With over 30 different car sizes and multiple door configurations available, our engineers can design a system that fits perfectly into your existing infrastructure, whether it’s a narrow silo or a wide boiler structure.
2. True Machine-Room-Less (MRL) Design
Because the motor and drive unit ride with the elevator car on the mast, you don’t need to build a structural penthouse or dedicated machine room. This drastically reduces construction costs and makes retrofitting older facilities incredibly simple.
4. Variable Frequency Control (VFC)
Equipped with an advanced VFC system, the Alimak SE delivers smooth starts and stops. This prevents wear and tear on the mechanical components, extends the lifespan of the elevator, and provides precise leveling at landings for easy loading of heavy carts or machinery.
