110 tons Backhoe dredger is just being finished installation in Turkey

1.Brief Introduction

A backhoe dredger/excavator pontoon is a specialized engineering vessel for underwater dredging. Simply put, it's like a barge equipped with an excavator, specifically designed to clear silt and obstacles from riverbeds and harbor basins, ensuring unobstructed navigation.

Working Principle: Its operation is exactly the same as a land-based backhoe excavator, except the entire equipment is mounted on a vessel. A hydraulic system operates the bucket, digging downwards and shoveling material into the barge on the ship.

Main Applications: The backhoe dredger/excavator pontoon is  used in port and waterway maintenance, and land reclamation projects, it excels at handling complex geological conditions such as hard soil and rock.

Features: Highly specialized: Designed specifically for hard soil layers and underwater environments.

Non-self-propelled: Typically requires tugboat propulsion and cannot move independently. 

Environmental Adaptability: Operates in harsh conditions, requiring high equipment reliability.

Comparison with Other Types: Compared to grab bucket dredgers (suitable for small-scale, obstacle removal) and chain bucket dredgers (suitable for clay, continuous operation), backhoe dredger/excavator pontoon/China backhoe dredger have a significant advantage in handling hard soil. 

Application Examples 

For example, the "Von Rocks" in Hong Kong is a backhoe dredger/excavator pontoon/China backhoe dredger used for deep-water channel maintenance in ports. 

In short, The backhoe dredger/excavator pontoon/china backhoe dredger is a highly efficient but demanding piece of specialized equipment, indispensable in port construction.
