Shifting appliances for tables
Intelligent solutions for fast, safe repositioning
Horizontal and vertical repositioning made easy
With Doka shifting appliances, slab-forming operations can be accomplished even faster. By making the crane unnecessary for both the horizontal and vertical repositioning operations, they simplify and optimise the logistics for the entire site, by doing away with unproductive (meaning costly) waiting times. The craneage saved here is then available for use elsewhere, which accelerates the entire site workflow. This saves on labour costs and boosts the contractors' competitiveness.

DoKart
The new DoKart is a "high-performer" whose innovative design perfectly suits it for the rough-and-tumble of everyday work on the site.
- safe, ergonomically comfortable shifting of Doka tableforms by just one man
- compact unit featuring high manoeuvrability for fast, easy workflows
- high load capacity of 2000 kg
- its big wheels, generous ground clearance and solid baseplate make it very rugged and reliable
The DoKart stands out for its great ease of operation, which ensures swift and easy workflows.
- The DoKart's ability to move 90° sideways, and to rotate around its centreline, cuts the distances it needs to cover and makes it even easier and quicker to travel the tables.
- Work is speeded up still further by the high lifting speed. It takes only 1 second to raise the tableform 8 cm, taking it immediately to the right height for its next time of use.
Doka shifting trolley with attachable drive unit
- For craneless horizontal repositioning of up to 12.5 m² of formwork, together with accessories, by only one man
- With the Shifting trolley DF, Dokamatic tables can be hydraulically lowered and travelled, swiftly and safely. The clamp-on Attachable drive unit DF allows Dokamatic tables to be travelled with minimal effort.
Transport fork DM 1.5t (adjustable)
The Transport fork DM 1.5t (adjustable), with a carrying capacity of 1500 kg, is supplied to the site folded closed. The 4 different fork-width adjustments give the fork the ideal fit for any table format and usage situation. A latch-type anti-slide-off guard enables the jib to be moved in under the table without hindrance, and then ensures complete safety while the table is being lifted.
Dokamatic lifting strap…
The Dokamatic lifting strap 13.00m can be used for hoisting tableform superstructures and ready-to-use tables. The 13 m long strap is designed so that the crew can easily and safely fix it and detach it when working from ground level.
…and loading platform
Using the Dokamatic lifting strap, the Dokamatic tables can be quickly lifted off the loading platform and up to the next level.
Tables can be lifted from the first storey upwards
The Table Lifting System TLS sets a brand-new benchmark for craneless vertical repositioning of tableforms. It makes a major contribution towards optimising the site logistics, and is designed to provide the very highest workplace safety. The Table Lifting System TLS can also be stood on the ground, making it possible to start repositioning tables right from the very first storey.
Fast repositioning, with no idle times
The Table Lifting System TLS makes possible a non-stop repositioning cycle which accelerates the entire construction sequence
- no more time lost waiting for the crane
- repositioning can continue even in high winds of up to 72 km/h
- the automatic operation mode allows efficient repositioning at the push of a button.
Extremely high safety in every phase of the work
Proven site-hoist technology, with multiple safeguards, ensures the very highest safety during repositioning of the Doka tableforms.
- TLS is installed on the structure by certified Doka formwork instructors
- is robustly anchored to the structure
- inward-opening landing-level safety gates and safety button on every storey
- slip-proof, weathering-resistant platform decking for high stability
Tables can be lifted on structures of any height
Only a few simple steps are needed to modify the TLS and turn it into a climbing unit that is suspended from the floor-slab. As soon as the TLS is hung into place and fixed, you can start work right away on lifting the Dokamatic tables up to the next floor. In this way, even the tallest buildings can be formed safely and quickly, independently of both wind conditions and crane availability, using Doka tableforms.
Speeds up the construction cycle
The Table Lifting System TLS saves precious crane time. This frees up the crane for other work, in turn speeding up the whole progress of construction. What is more, by making the site independent of the wind conditions, the TLS makes a double contribution towards speeding up the work. Table repositioning operations can now continue undisturbed even in windier conditions – and still in complete safety. Manpower can be deployed very efficiently, and fast construction progress achieved, with the interoperable shifting appliances. These make it possible for the tableforms to be travelled to and from the TLS quickly and easily, by just one man.
Crane-independent raising of the Table Lifting System TLS
As well as the crane-lifted version of the TLS that is suspended from the slab, the TLS can now also be used as a self-climbed system for any height of structure. The self-climbing solution delivers even more crane-time savings and safety on the site, as the TLS can now be "jumped" 100% automatically. The self-climbing TLS is the perfect add-on to Doka tableforms and to the protection screens at the slab-edges. This equipment line-up is the ideal slab formwork system for tall structures. Alternatively, where sufficient craneage is available the TLS can also be structure-guided and raised by crane – in any weather.
