Created in 1971, Acimex acquired its accolade in the domain of gripping and lifting of steel and sheet plates, mainly serving the iron, steel and mechanical engineering industries.

Then, the company extended its knowledge delivering its competences to the concrete and pipe handling. We work for building sites of very broad scale, supplying companies in construction, civil engineering (Bouygues, Vinci, NFM etc.) aeronautics (EADS, Dassault, Airbus etc.) and naval (Mechanical Engineering of Normandy and others).

Our products are used under extreme conditions on hostile, perilous, exiguous grounds where other lifting systems cannot work, i.e. installation of segments by TBM. We develop systems able to lift and handle up to 30 tons in full safety.

In addition, we offer to our clients’ turnkey solutions for the realization of complete handling lines, elaborated in partnership with our customers’ technicians. The service of ACIMEX includes the realization, the assembly and the startup of automated units for various manufacturing processes. Some specific handling problems presented by our customers led us to create new systems and to deposit patents in the aeronautic and aerospace fields.
