The drive rails are available in two variants, depending on the type of project at hand: RCS MAX C and CL. Both allow the platforms to be moved safely in 750 mm increments.

RCS MAX Rail Climbing System

The new RCS MAX Rail Climbing System is an evolution of our proven RCS Climbing System.

It revolutionises the climbing process by maximising speed, economic efficiency and safety on your construction site.


With cost control in mind, the new RCS MAX modules – the RCS MAX Hydraulic Unit and the RCS MAX Drive Rails – can be added to your existing RCS system components.

With its completely new approach to climbing, the RCS MAX Rail Climbing System revolutionises climbing techniques and improves productivity and safety on your construction site.

The new RCS MAX Hydraulic Unit enables multiple platforms to be climbed at the same time, and multiple units working together ensure all platforms climb simultaneously if desired.  No open building edges provide the safest working environment at height.

The RCS MAX Drive Rails C and CL enable you to move platforms safely from one level up to the next position. The rails are firmly anchored to the wall at all times during this process. The vertical load created during the concreting process is transferred via a climbing shoe and into the concreting section that has already cured.  The result is faster concreting cycles helping you to keep on programme, saving valuable time and money.


RCS MAX Rail Climbing System in action

  • The RCS Rail Climbing System is now even quicker, safer and more efficient thanks to its two new modules – the RCS MAX Hydraulic Unit and the RCS MAX Drive Rails.
    Benefits of the RCS MAX Drive Rails:

    Quicker concreting cycles
    due to transfer of the vertical load into the cured concrete section

    Faster climbing process
    due to the automated ascent without the need for additional adjustments before climbing

    Reduction in cylinder cycles
    meaning fewer steps are required to move to the next position

  • Faults are indicated by light signals on the RCS MAX Hydraulic Unit as well as on the display and can therefore be identified quickly and remedied easily on site. This saves you valuable time and money.
    Benefits of the RCS MAX Hydraulic Unit:

    No open building edges
    greater safety as a result as several or all platforms climb simultaneously

    Full and mobile control
    over the climbing process via the connected display

    Swift identification and rectification of issues
    thanks to simple error reporting the mobile unit and message display
