dragflow sand mining dredge

Dragflow has supplied a new dredge for sand mining and construction in Nigeria.

The full equipment includes an hydraulic pump (HY400) with two excavators (EXHY35).

This dredge is from Dragflow’s new series, with the operator cabin completely re-designed to be more comfortable with a better view of the work area.

Dragflow’s technicians and engineers have used all their consolidated know-how and expertise to design a machine at the forefront of innovation.

The re-styled cabin is equipped with more instruments to monitor work activities, such as a working depth, pump rpm and working pressure, critical alarms and dredge position.

A logging system has been installed to track dredge activities and if necessary help in troubleshooting.

Dragflow also gives its customers the opportunity to integrate a 3G wireless real-time monitoring system in order to allow remote control of dredging parameters and operation.

The new dredges with extended fuel tanks to reduce the frequency of re-fuelling, also have an innovative cooling system, soundproof enclosure and available coating for acid or basic environments.

Dragflow machines are designed for the harshest working conditions.

Each year, Dragflow invests a high percentage of its revenue in research and development and training, in order to assure the suitability and functionality of the end product and to increase the customer’s productivity.
