8600m³ Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger

Main homework features
Working principle: The rake suction dredger uses a mud rake located in front of the suction port to loosen the soil. The mud is sucked into the ship’s mud compartment by the suction effect generated by the mud pump. After filling, it navigates to the mud throwing area and unloads the mud through the conical mud door at the bottom of the compartment.
Applicable soil types: silt, clay, sandy soil. The rake head, rake teeth, and mud pump lining plate are all made of high manganese steel.
Characteristics of homework:
Has good self navigation, self excavation, self loading and self unloading capabilities
Can operate continuously while sailing
Strong wind and wave resistance, suitable for coastal ports, wide river surfaces, and ship anchorages
💎 summary
The 8600 cubic meter trailing suction dredger is a large trailing suction dredger that integrates self navigation, self excavation, self loading, and self dumping. It has efficient dredging capabilities and good navigation performance, and is one of the core equipment for port channel maintenance and coastal dredging projects. Its typical configuration consists of dual rakes, dual pumps, and dual main engines, with a mud tank capacity of 8600 cubic meters, a total installed power of over 12000 kilowatts, and a maximum excavation depth of about 26 meters. It can adapt to continuous and efficient operations under various soil conditions.
