ALIMAK Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full ALIMAK product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Alimak Scando and Scando 650 Personnel Lifts
Heavy-duty personnel and material hoists for construction and industrial sites. Common faults include control relay failures, motor contactor sticking, and brake control system malfunctions that prevent safe load descent.
Alimak Minilift and Minilifts XE
Compact vertical transport lifts for confined spaces and retrofits. Repair issues often involve safety brake wear, motor overload tripping, and control circuit intermittency in harsh Indian industrial environments.
Alimak Construction Elevators (CE and CE-XL Series)
Large-capacity construction elevators for high-rise industrial projects. Frequent repairs address frequency converter faults, load cell sensor errors, and hoist motor bearing issues in dusty foundry and cement plant conditions.
Alimak Hoist Motor Drives and Frequency Converters
Variable frequency drives controlling Alimak hoist motors. Common failures include thermal shutdown trips, capacitor degradation in high-temperature Indian factory floors, and control signal loss from brake solenoid circuits.
Alimak Safety Brake Control Systems
Electromechanical brake controllers ensuring emergency load holding. Typical faults: brake solenoid coil burnout, control relay chatter, and spring brake release mechanism sticking due to vibration and dust ingress.
Alimak Load Cells and Encoder Systems
Sensors for load monitoring and hoist position feedback. Repairs involve signal conditioning PCB faults, connector corrosion in humid Indian climates, and encoder wheel misalignment causing lift jerk and speed errors.

Common ALIMAK Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in ALIMAK equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Brake solenoid coil open circuit or burnout — Alimak brake solenoids fail due to voltage spikes from motor switching, thermal cycling in Indian foundries and steel plants, and contamination ingress. Coil insulation degrades, leading to winding breakdown and loss of brake release function.
- ✓Frequency converter thermal shutdown or overcurrent trip — Alimak hoist drives overheat due to dust accumulation on heatsinks, excessive motor load from brake friction, or inadequate cooling in cramped machine rooms common in Indian factories. Electrolytic capacitors also degrade in high ambient temperatures, reducing cooling efficiency.
- ✓Load cell signal loss or erratic weight reading — Alimak load cells suffer connector corrosion and signal cable shielding degradation in humid refinery and coastal plant environments across India. Moisture ingress into junction boxes causes intermittent excitation voltage loss and output noise.
- ✓Motor contactor chatter or failure to engage hoist drive — Alimak hoists experience control relay and contactor coil failures from voltage transients, mechanical wear of contact surfaces, and contamination in humid manufacturing zones. Intermittent control signal loss from encoder failure also prevents motor engagement.
- ✓Hoist jerk or jerky motion during load raise or lower — Jerky motion in Alimak lifts results from brake spring stiction, encoder wheel misalignment, or servo loop instability in the motor drive. Inadequate lubrication and vibration loosening bearing preload also contribute in high-vibration foundry and mining environments.
- ✓Emergency stop button not halting hoist or brake not holding load — Alimak safety circuits fail when relay contacts stick open due to arc erosion, solenoid valves clog with contamination, or brake spring tension weakens from fatigue. Common in Indian plants with poor maintenance schedules and harsh operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions — ALIMAK Repairs
Do you repair Alimak equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete Alimak product range — hoists, construction elevators, frequency converters, brake controllers, and sensor systems. We offer PAN India door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata, and all other cities. All repairs are performed at our 180+ engineer facility in Vadodara, Gujarat.
What Alimak hoist models do you commonly repair in India?+
We repair Alimak Scando series, Minilift XE, Construction Elevators (CE and CE-XL), and all associated motor drives and brake systems. Whether your Alimak lift is installed in a Mumbai construction site, Chennai refinery, or inland mining operation, our engineers have the expertise and spare part network to restore it quickly. Typical turnaround is 5-7 days for most Alimak control board repairs.
How do you diagnose Alimak brake solenoid faults?+
Synchronics uses multimeter testing to check solenoid coil resistance and insulation, thermal imaging to detect heat buildup, and functional brake release tests under load. We verify solenoid voltage ratings and pulse characteristics match your Alimak control circuit. If coil burnout is confirmed, we either rewind the solenoid or supply a genuine replacement — whichever is cost-effective for your plant.
Can you repair Alimak frequency converter thermal shutdown issues?+
Yes. We perform full thermal diagnostics using IR imaging, replace degraded electrolytic capacitors (the primary cause of heat buildup), clean dust from heatsinks, and reprogram soft-start parameters. Many Alimak drives overheat due to poor ventilation in machine rooms — we assess cooling adequacy and recommend fan upgrades if needed. Post-repair, we run 2-hour load simulation tests to verify stable thermal operation.
Do you stock genuine Alimak spare parts?+
Synchronics maintains a curated inventory of critical Alimak components — solenoid coils, brake springs, relays, connector assemblies, and load cell transducers. For complete control boards and drives, we source directly from Alimak authorized distributors across India, ensuring genuine parts with full warranty. Emergency rush parts deliveries are available to major Indian cities within 24-48 hours.
How do I send my ALIMAK unit for repair?+
Pack the unit securely and courier it to our Vadodara workshop. Include a note with the fault description and your contact details. We will log it into our system and WhatsApp you a job number within 24 hours of receipt. Doorstep pickup is available in Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai, and Pune.
What is the cost of repairing a ALIMAK drive or PLC?+
Repair cost depends on the model and the fault. We offer a free diagnosis — once we identify the fault, we provide a fixed quotation before proceeding. Typical repairs cost 20–40% of the new unit price. We will never repair without your approval.
What warranty do you provide on ALIMAK repairs?+
All repaired units carry a 6-month comprehensive warranty covering the same fault and related issues. If the fault recurs within the warranty period, we repair it free of cost.
Do you provide a no-fix, no-fee guarantee?+
Yes. If we cannot repair your ALIMAK unit after diagnosis, you pay only the diagnosis fee (₹500–₹1,500 depending on the product). The unit is returned to you at no additional charge.
