ALM Corporation (Automotive Lift & Machinery Corporation)

ALM Corporation was founded in 1982. The company commenced operations after successfully negotiating an exclusive license for distribution of specialized lifting equipment throughout North America. While enjoying success as a distributor, the company's primary intent was to eventually manufacture its own line of specialized and custom designed lifts. This became a reality in 1987 when ALM constructed a modern 30,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Streator, Illinois, with manufacturing operations commencing shortly thereafter. The manufacturing facility was expanded to 55,000 square feet in late 1990.

ALM's modern facility allows us the capability to meet the ever increasing demands of productivity and service with unsurpassed commitment to safety in the lifting equipment we design, manufacture and sell. Addressing the unique requirements of our varied customer base is the driving force behind everything we do.

Sales Engineering
The process of addressing our customer needs begins in sales/engineering. Our sales/engineering department is responsible for product design, including designing custom lifts as well as our standard products. Engineering provides the vital link between sales and production. These are the people who constantly strive for additional safety innovation and enhancements for our entire product line.

Manufacturing
The heart of our operation is production. Production is coordinated with sales and engineering by a state of the art computer system managing the entire operation. Manufacturing processes include the forming of steel plate by a hydraulic press and the fabrication of steel plate by computerized burning with extensive attention to the details of form, fit and function. All of this results in the timely delivery of product to our customer.

Service After The Sale
Service is a vital component to the ALM product line. From design to product testing, ALM is constantly striving to meet or exceed the expectations of our customers before, during and after the sale.

Value is the right combination of product quality, fair price and good service. It's about real performance and delivery. ALM provides value, combining expert design and engineering with manufacturing capabilities to deliver innovative solutions and quality products to our varied customer base.
