Our equipment is designed with mobility, reliability, durability, and safety in mind, ensuring you have the best tools for the job. One of the most enduring and versatile dredger designs, the Cutter Suction Dredger employs a rotating cutter head at the end of a suction line. This cutter head is typically shaped like a basket and features blades that rotate within it. When the blades make contact with the seabed or riverbed material, they cut and loosen it, allowing the material to be drawn up into a suction tube. Raw water intakes along rivers and streams can clog during large flooding events or over time -hydraulic dredging.
We are the area’s leading authority in comprehensive waterfront restoration projects, offering smart, environmentally-friendly, solution for your unique body of water. It also leaves little lasting impact on launch and recovery sites, so it’s environmentally friendly. Consider the interplay of all of these factors as you choose your dredge size. In many cases, you may want to consult with experienced dredging professionals who can give you an expert opinion about the right dredge for your project - mechanical dredging.
They are also employed in beach nourishment projects, where large volumes of sand need to be relocated to restore eroded coastlines. Additionally, these dredgers are useful in environmental remediation efforts, such as removing contaminated sediments from water bodies to improve water quality. These dredgers are designed to handle loose and soft materials such as sand, gravel, and silt. Amphibious excavators, sometimes called marsh buggies, are another type of mechanical dredge.
With their increased size, ships need improved navigation channels to enter and leave ports efficiently, quickly, and safely. However, few rivers or harbors are naturally deep. Therefore, they require underwater excavation or "dredging." After the initial excavation establishes a channel, periodic or "maintenance" dredging must be done to keep that channel clear and safe for navigation.
