Product Overview

As a flagship core equipment, our 18-inch cutter suction dredger is specially designed for large-scale land reclamation, long-distance sediment transport, and various complex deep-water operations. It is suitable for demanding engineering scenarios, balancing operational efficiency and stability, making it the preferred dredging equipment for multinational projects and national strategic initiatives.

The equipment uses a rotating cutter head to efficiently loosen seabed sediments, working in conjunction with a high-power mud pump to draw in the loosened material. Through a dedicated discharge pipeline, it achieves long-distance transportation. Depending on different project requirements, the dredging depth and discharge distance can be customized, allowing flexible adaptation to various complex deep-water operations and helping to advance projects efficiently.

Working Principle

1. The rotating cutter head operates at high speed, thoroughly loosening seabed sediments and deposits, breaking up hard layers of mud, and laying the groundwork for subsequent transport;

2. A high-power specialized mud pump starts up efficiently, mixing the loosened sediment with water to form a slurry, which is quickly drawn into the equipment;

3. Through a reinforced discharge pipeline, the slurry is stably transported to the designated area, enabling long-distance sediment transfer;

4. Supports customized dredging depth and discharge distance, adapting to deep-water operations, large-scale land reclamation, and other complex scenarios, allowing continuous and stable operation.
