The Hydraulic Auto-Climbing Formwork System (HACS) is a self-ascending wall-mounted formwork system that operates using its integrated hydraulic lifting mechanism. This advanced system comprises a hydraulic cylinder, an upper and lower switching mechanism, enabling the transfer of lifting force between the main support frame and the climbing track. Driven by the hydraulic system, both the main support frame and climbing track ascend independently, allowing the entire HACS to rise smoothly without the need for cranes or additional lifting equipment.
The HACS is designed for ease of operation, ensuring rapid and secure climbing processes. Its self-contained lifting system eliminates the requirement for external lifting devices, enhancing efficiency and safety on construction sites. Due to its user-friendly design, high efficiency, and robust safety features, the Hydraulic Auto-Climbing Formwork System is the preferred choice for constructing high-rise towers and bridges, offering a reliable and innovative solution for modern construction projects.

Hydraulic auto-climbing formwork can climb as a complete set or individually. The climbing process is steady, synchronous and safe.
The brackets of the auto-climbing formwork system will not be dismantled until the construction period finished, thus saving space for the site and avoiding damage to the formwork, especially to the panel.
It provides all-round operating platforms. The contractors do not need to set up other operating platforms, thus saving the cost on material and labor, and improving safety.
The error of structure construction is small. As work on correction is simple, the construction error can be eliminated floor by floor.
The climbing speed of the formwork system is fast. It can speed up the whole construction work (average 5 days for one floor).
The formwork can climb by itself and cleaning work can be done in situ, so that the use of tower crane will be greatly reduced.
