Italdraghe, the Italian dredger builder, has designed a dredging bucket that is ideal for small scale dredging jobs in narrow canals and waterways involving the removal of only a few thousand cubic meters of material.
This bucket can be fitted on to either land-based or floating excavators and features a range of additional quick change tools including water-jet disgregators and a nozzled rake, which also make it suitable for hydro-culture and sea farming applications.
Advantages of this innovative dredging bucket include:
-Specifically designed for small-scale dredging
-Easy to fit onto most hydraulic excavators
-Ideal for dredging narrow waterways and hard-to-access canals
-Suitable for working from both on-land and floating excavators
-Simple, quick-fit installation
-Low-maintenance design
-Driven directly by excavator power source
-Extremely versatile thanks to range of optional features
