alimex founder – Helmut Geller – contributed to taking aluminium processing into new dimensions in 1970 with a simple but technically sophisticated idea.
Aluminium cast plates and aluminium blanks as the starting material for demanding applications. Cast plate technology has long since proven itself worldwide and set new technological standards.
Electronics, laser, packaging, medical and laboratory technology. They are all beneficiaries of cast aluminium plates. These cast plates have excellent dimensional stability, little scrap and fast processing times. Cast aluminium plates offer many advantages that make aluminium applications more efficient.
The core of our worldwide success is our innovative strength. We have consistently expanded our product range in the field of aluminium cast plates.

The following is a (small) excerpt from our product portfolio:
ACP 5080 is a low-stress aluminium precision cast plate with very balanced mechanical properties. The fine-grained and low-porosity aluminium cast structure is homogenised and thermally stress-relieved by an extensive heat treatment. The dimensional stability is optimally maintained. The special feature of ACP 5080 is the finely milled surface on both sides. Each aluminium panel is finally checked and provided with a protective film on both sides.
The milled aluminium precision plate ACP 7 or ACP 7R, the latter with sawn surface, is particularly suitable for applications with high demands on mechanical properties in combination with excellent machining properties and material stability. As the world’s leading manufacturer of cast aluminium plates and custom cut aluminium, and with our more than 50 years of experience, we have succeeded in achieving outstanding quality with ACP7. This unique ACP cast plate of the 7000 series, has outstanding strength values.
ACP 6000 is an aluminium precision cast plate, precision milled on both sides, which is characterised by low stress and excellent machinability with sufficient strength. Due to the cast aluminium structure and a special heat treatment before milling, the dimensional stability of the aluminium blank is optimally maintained, even with complicated machining. To protect the finely milled surfaces, all aluminium sheet blanks are provided with a protective film on both sides. Moulds made of ACP 6000 are used, for example, to produce packaging for foodstuffs.
With our product Eloxpure ®, we have been able to achieve a further increase in the aesthetic appeal of the anodised image. This product fulfils all parameters regarding the optimisation of the highest requirements for anodising and hard anodising. Through the most intensive research & development, it has been possible to create a unique quality that cannot be compared. Compared to the frequently used aluminium precision plate ACP 5080, ELOXPURE is characterised by a significantly improved anodisability and meets maximum technical and optical demands with consistent results.
