Family business since 1974
AIM Technical Solutions GmbH is a family business founded in 1974, now in its third generation, headquartered in Timelkam (Pichlwang), Upper Austria. The company manufactures and installs complete industrial plants as well as individual components: piping construction, vessel and apparatus construction, steel construction, plastics technology and plant construction as general contractor, including engineering, project management, commissioning, maintenance and service. In vessel construction, storage tanks, pressure vessels, adsorption systems, heat exchangers, droplet separators, agitator vessels and silos are produced up to 4.5 m in diameter and 100 m³ capacity. Materials include boiler and heat-resistant structural steels (P235GH, 13CrMo4-5, 16Mo3), high-alloy stainless steels (1.4539, 1.4547), aluminium, copper as well as thermoplastics such as PP, PE, PVDF and PVC. Industries served include the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, energy and power plant technology, HVAC/R, paper and environmental technology. More than 70 employees work at the Timelkam site; since 2021, plant 2 in Laakirchen has manufactured plastic components. All welding processes are TÜV-certified according to DIN EN 15614-1, and personnel are qualified according to EN ISO 9606.
