YLTB-600 is a multi-purpose self-propelled vessel built for medium-tonnage waterborne logistics and engineering support. This robust transport barge delivers reliable performance across inland rivers, lakes, coastal zones and shallow restricted waterways. With a rated payload of 600 tons per trip, it serves as a flexible cargo barge and efficient transportation ship, combining the stability of a hopper barge with self-propelled mobility to meet diverse operational demands.

This barge adopts a heavy-duty steel structure with hull length 50m, breadth 9m and height 3.2m, reaching a total height of 10.3m including living quarters and operation cabin. The hull uses 8mm bottom and side steel plates together with 10mm deck steel plates, ensuring high strength and durability for long-term heavy-duty use. Powered by two Weichai WP13C450-18E220 diesel engines (330KW each) matched with two Hangzhou Fada FD345 gearboxes at a 3:1 ratio, the transport barge achieves a navigation speed of 8–10 knots. A 50KW Weichai diesel generator set provides stable auxiliary power for daily operations and living utilities. The propulsion system includes 125mm diameter shafts, 1.5m diameter propellers and a 3-ton hydraulic steering machine, ensuring smooth maneuvering and precise control in complex water conditions.

This self-propelled transport barge integrates cargo transportation, crew accommodation, on-board operation and power supply in one compact design. As a capable cargo barge, it supports bulk loading and stable delivery of sand, gravel, coal, ore, construction materials and engineering equipment, with deck layout compatible with hopper barge working modes for efficient loading and unloading of bulk materials. The self-propelled system allows independent navigation without tug assistance, greatly improving scheduling flexibility and transport efficiency in narrow channels and port areas. The three-storey living arrangement includes multiple bedrooms, a dining room, a kitchen, an office and four toilet units with showers, supporting long-term offshore missions and crew daily life. The elevated operation cabin offers wide visibility for safe navigation and cargo handling, making this transportation ship suitable for continuous engineering support and long-distance logistics tasks.

YLTB-600 works efficiently in multiple waterborne scenarios as a versatile transport barge and dependable cargo barge. In inland waterway and coastal logistics, it carries bulk commodities and construction materials between terminals, factories and construction bases, lowering per-ton logistics cost. For port and marine engineering projects, this transportation ship transports steel structures, precast components and heavy machinery, acting as a mobile supply platform and auxiliary base. In dredging and water environment improvement, it functions as a practical hopper barge to collect, transfer and dispose silt, sludge and dredged materials effectively. It also provides material supply and crew transfer services for offshore projects, and can be deployed as a multi-purpose platform for emergency rescue, flood control material delivery and temporary water operations.

YLTB-600 self-propelled 600Tons transport barge integrates strong loading capacity, reliable power system, complete living facilities and wide environmental adaptability. It performs stably as a transport barge, cargo barge, hopper barge and multi-role transportation ship, providing economical and efficient solutions for medium-tonnage water transportation and engineering support. With solid structure, steady performance and low operating cost, this barge is an ideal choice for inland waterway logistics, coastal transportation, dredging assistance and offshore engineering services.
