Cutter Suction Dredging - IMS 7012 HP Versi Dredge

- Self propelled cutter suction dredging - avoids the need for pulley systems.
 

- Truck transportable on a low loader so reducing transport plan complexity and costs.
 

- High efficiency cutter and suction dredging able to dig deeper and pump a higher percentage

of solids of any dredger in its class.
 

- Able to pump 4000 to 4500 feet depending on specific gravity of dredged material.
 

- Compact and shallow draft so able to work in a variety of tight and environmentally sensitive  dredging situations.

 

- Dredging in depths from 3 to 30 feet 

 

- Small enough to dredge in tighter confines

Our 7012 HP Versi Dredge is unique in the UK

The Model 7012 HP Versi-Dredge is ideal for rivers, lakes, beach projects, port projects, and production sand mining. The Starwheel Drive system allows the dredge to be completely self-propelled.

 

The 7012 HP is the “flag ship” of the IMS product line. The 425 horse power unit utilizes its 10” x 12” GIW pump directly behind the ultra aggressive Excavator Cutterhead equipped with replaceable,hardened sharks teeth and excavator teeth.

 

The ladder mounted submerged pump achieves a higher percentage of solids than hull mounted pumps which results in greater output. The High Pressure pump on the 7012 is a GIW 10” x 12” cast iron, hi-chrome sand pump that can pump sand to a maximum distance of between 4,000’-4,500’ depending on specific gravity of the material.

 

The 7012 HP is the only one truck transportable self-propelled dredge in the world that can dig down to a standard depth of 30’ without having to be disassembled for road transport. The 7012 HP can dig deeper and pump a higher percentage of solids than any of other dredge in its class. 

 

 

 

Cutter Suction Dredging Discharge and Disposal

 

Whilst the actual dredging is a very important part of the whole process, disposing of the removed product is an equally key consideration especially under current legislation. 

 

The IMS 7012 HP can pump silt and sand up to 4500 feet or just over 370 meters, and further if additional booster pumps are added. This gives maximum flexibility whether your designated disposal point is just outside of a harbour or out along a river into an estuary. 

 

Smart Dredging Solutions has a number of different pipework options, from land based to floating and from flexible hose to rigid pipework. Couples with additional workboats and experienced crews this means that the optimum set up can be achieved and modified as a project develops. 
 

· The machine has a 12” diameter discharge system connected to a powerful pump, which means the spoil can be pumped over long distances and over obstacles.
