Bracket
Special developed and optimized as
selfclimbing bracket
ACS-R = Rigid welded construction
ACS-RV = adjustable
High vertical and horizontal loads
possible because of strong brackets.
Anchor system and brackets are
exactly coordinated.
Therefore big spacing between
brackets possible (18m unit supported
by only 2 brackets).
Big bracket spacing
= less lost anchorparts
Doka SKE 100
Special developed as selfclimbing
bracket
Bracket is adjustable
Lower vertical and horizontal loads
because head of mainbeam is not so
strong as the ACS‘one.
Big spacing between Brackets
possible.
Big bracket spacing
= less lost anchorparts

Optimized handling
= faster = low labour cost
Pre-assembly possible
= low assembly effort on site
Components are powder coated
= low cleaning effort and costs
Units can be climbed by crane

Handling is not optimized
= slower = higher labour cost
Pre-assembly not possible
= higher assembly effort on site
Components are hot galvanized
= high cleaning effort and costs

Climbing
The climbing procedure is
mechanically forced controlled
(Patent)
Even in very dirty conditions ratchet is
locked onto the catches of the
climbing beam
= very little cleaning and maintenance
System can be climbed back manually
in steps of 64cm / 2'-1"
Doka SKE 100
The climbing procedure is not forced
controlled
A spring mechanism pushes the cam
into the webholes of the climbing
beams very susceptible to dirt

Hydraulic
100 KN lifting capacity per cylinder
An integrated flow dividing system
and a big stroke of 64cm / 2ft of the
cylinders guarantees an absolute
simultaneous climbing (tolerance
±2cm / ¾")
Even with extrem assymetrical load
distribution no additional adjustments
have to be made.
This is automatically done by the flow
dividing system.
Doka SKE 100
100 KN lifting capacity per cylinder
No flow dividing system and a stroke
of 25cm / 10" of the cylinders results
in an unsteady climbing
Even with symetrical load distribution
additional adjustments on the
hydraulic cylinders must be made.
