Excavating submerged sand is the most common use of a dredge. Sand dredging operations are present in every corner of the globe. No matter what your sand dredging production requirements are, an Ellicott® Dragon® dredge is capable of satisfying your demand.
For sand dredging, Ellicott® Dragon® dredges are used in both man made pit mines and open river systems. |
Shown here is a Series 870 Jet Dragon® dredge that is
electrically powered. Engine emission laws in New
Jersey, USA required this sand dredging operation to power its dredge and booster pump electrically.
|
This sand mine had very specialized requirements for its mine. The deposits of this New Jersey, USA mine were beyond the depth of any of Ellicott®’s standard dredge models. Ellicott® sales and engineering worked closely
with this operation to design a custom sand dredge that
could reach 80ft (24m) digging depth.
