Dredging
Material handling made easy

Dredging is necessary when sediment settles and leads to shallow water, which impairs the shipping industry. Excavation of sand from the seabed in the course of land reclamation is a further possible application.
In doing so, the duty cycle crawler cranes must endure high dynamic forces. Thanks to their robust design they are perfectly suitable for material handling operation.

Dredging assistant
This digital solution supports the operator in his work and simplifies crane handling in grab operation. Safety is increased, rope wear is minimized and turnover is improved.
Downsizing
Thanks to the machine's optimized hydraulic system the size of the primary source can be reduced without negative impact on the turnover. The efficiency is thus significantly increased while fuel consumption is decreased.
Safety
Duty cycle crawler cranes meet highest safety standards. The uppercarriage has integrated railings, walkways and pedestals allowing a safe access to the platform.

Job reports

The drain of Lago di Luzzone, a reservoir in the Swiss canton of Ticino, has to be freed of deposited sediments. At depths of up to 200 m, a total of 125,000 m³ of material has accumulated in close proximity to the power station of Olivone.

The handling of the HS 8130 is extremely smooth and precise. This contributes immensely to the fact that, so far, the work has progressed according to plan.
