Cutter suction dredger is suitable for heavy duty and durable operations with dismountable structure. It is easy to transport through road, rail or by ship due to its reasonable size and weight of the various dismountable modules. It is widely used for river silt cleaning, delisting lakes and ponds, mining project, cleaning ports and sand production.
What is Hydraulic Cutter Suction Dredger
Description
1. Introduction
The cutter suction dredger is engineered for heavy-duty and enduring operations, boasting a dismountable structure that facilitates easy transportation via road, rail, or ship due to its reasonable size and weight of various dismountable modules. Comprising one main pontoon and two side pontoons, which are securely connected using heavy-duty steel eyes and pins at the bottom of the hull, this hydraulic cutter suction dredger ensures stability and reliability during operation. The pontoons, constructed from welded steel, feature robust frames, beams, and longitudinal girders, with additional reinforcements in strategic areas to withstand all forces encountered during dredging activities. Widely utilized for river silt cleaning, delisting lakes and ponds, mining projects, cleaning ports, and sand production, the cutter suction dredger offers the following features:
- High automation, facilitating easy operation and boasting high recovery rates, concentration ratios, particle allowance, and long discharge distances.
- Dismountable structure enables easy disassembly and transportation.
- Equipped with a self-propulsion system, allowing it to move to different work sites independently or be towed by a tugboat.
- Hull consists of multiple pontoons connected by a proven coupling system, ensuring stability and maneuverability.
- Provides good access to all parts, particularly the dredge pump wearing parts, and features a fresh water cooling system.
- Customizable according to customer requirements.
- Excavating and discharging processes are completed in one operation, eliminating the need for additional machinery or boats and reducing project operating costs dramatically.
- Capable of working full-time in sheltered sailing areas, inland waterways, lakes, and reservoirs due to its high terrain adaptability.
- Utilizes two types of cutter suction heads for different situations.
2. Working Principle:
The hydraulic cutter suction dredger employs a rotary cutter head at the front of the suction pipe to cut and stir solids in the river bottom. This process results in a slurry concentration suitable for pumping, allowing the powerful pump to suction and discharge the mixed slurry to the designated location via the discharge pipe continuously. The series of cutting, suction, transporting, and discharging actions are seamlessly executed in one operation.
During operation, one spud is lowered at the back of the dredger into the river bottom, while the dredger is swung to cut solids by controlling the steel cable and locating pulleys fixed on the two sides of the ladder. The dredger works in a fan shape, discharging solids via pipelines connected to the sand pump outlet. Advancing and locating the cutter suction dredger are achieved through the alternating movement of the two spuds.
