Auger & Cutter Dredgers For Any Project.
Dredge Yard continues its mission in being the leading manufacturer of small to medium sized professional dredgers. The new Auger dredger 200 (8inch) and Cutter Suction Dredger 250 (10inch) ensure high efficiency and durability. Additionally, Dredge Yard always offers very versatile dredgers. In accordance to this, dredger 200 and 250 design features interchangeable components. Thus, each dredger can be equipped with a cutter head (with replaceable teeth), auger head or plain suction head. Therefore, these dredgers are not only compact, durable and good-looking, but also suitable for a wide variety of dredging and mining applications under all conditions.
In addition to its versatility, the new Auger, Cutter and Plain Suction dredgers have been optimized to increase dredge performance and decrease operational costs. How? Read on.
Underwater Dredge Pump
The dredged material is pumped by an underwater dredge pump, which is driven by a hydraulic motor and mounted on a rigid bearing assembly and shaft. As a result, the pump can have a higher pumping flow and of a higher density mixture. Therefore, overall, an underwater dredge pump design offers higher production than a dredge pump mounted in the pontoons.
In addition to this, the control cabin is equipped with all necessities to ensure the operator’s safety and comfort. For example, the cabin is supplied with noise and vibration reduction, ventilation, windshield wipers and an adjustable chair, to name a few. Moreover, air conditioning or a heater is included depending on the geographical location of operation.
Propulsion
All of the dredgers 200 and 250 are self-propelled with two hydraulic thrusters provided only by the best, first-class European brands. As a result, the dredgers are easily maneuverable without any involvement of tugboats or other support. Furthermore, to ensure mobilization support, the dredgers are equipped with tiltable spuds, which can be manually tilted and secured to the deck.
Finally, another important characteristic to highlight, is that the new dredgers 200 and 250 accommodate higher fuel tank capacity. Therefore, the number of necessary refueling intervals for continuous operations is reduced, which allows uninterrupted project work.
