Intamin is a Swiss - Liechtenstein group of companies specializing in the development and production of leisure facilities and transport systems.

Intamin consists u. a. from Intamin AG based in Wollerau , from Intamin Amusement Rides International Corporation Establishment based in Schaan and from Intamin Transportation Limited based in Schaan.

Intamin Amusement Rides specializes in particular in the manufacture of roller coasters and free fall towers and produces 22 different leisure attractions. The company has so far produced 90 roller coasters worldwide.

history

Intamin AG was founded in 1967 by the brothers Robert and Reinhold Spieldiener and Alfons Saiko. The company has been family-owned since Reinhold's son Patrick took over the business. In the first few years Intamin mainly worked with Swiss manufacturers of ski lifts and cable cars in order to gain experience in the field of safety technology. While Intamin initially specialized in transport systems, the first major order for an amusement park facility came in 1969 with the construction of the Oil Derricks viewing platform in the Six Flags amusement park in Texas .

The first roller coaster, Jr. Gemini in the amusement park Cedar Point , was built in 1979 and was at the same time the reason for an Intamin branch in the USA. The commitment in the USA was strengthened primarily through the acquisition of patents and rights to the bankrupt German Schwarzkopf GmbH . Most of the Intamin roller coasters have since been created mostly in close cooperation with the German roller coaster designer Werner Stengel .

Record attractions

Intamin became known in particular through record-breaking constructions. These include the currently highest roller coaster in the world and, until November 2010, the fastest roller coaster in the world, Kingda Ka , as well as the currently fastest roller coaster in the world, Formula Rossa , and the roller coaster Colossus with a total of ten inversions . The longest roller coaster Intamins is Millennium Force with a length of 2010 meters.

In Germany, among other things, the wooden roller coaster Colossos and the Accelerator Coaster Desert Race in Heide-Park Soltau as well as the steel roller coaster Expedition GeForce in the Holiday Park in Haßloch were created . In addition, Chiapas, the world's steepest whitewater course , has been in the Phantasialand Brühl since April 2014 .

In 2016 there was also the Launched Coaster Taron (Phantasialand) , which became the longest of its kind, fastest and fastest accelerating LSM Multi Launch Coaster in the world.
