What is a bucket dredger?
A bucket dredger is equipped with a bucket dredge, which is a
device that picks up sediment by mechanical means, often with many
circulating buckets attached to a wheel or chain. A bucket dredger
is a stationary dredger that is equipped with a continuous chain of
buckets, which are carried through a structure, the ladder. The
bucket dredger is anchored on six anchors.
How does a bucket dredger work?
In the dredging process, the dredger swings around the bow anchor
by retracting or releasing the winch board. The bucket filled at
the bottom is emptied by dumping its upper part.The contents enter
a chute, and the dredged material can be slid along the chute into
a barge moored next to it. The chain is driven by the so-called
upturner on the top of the ladder frame,It is connected to the
diesel engine or directly to the electric motor or hydraulic engine
through a belt.
Area of application
Bucket dredgers are only used in new or maintenance dredging
projects when the initial depth of the area to be dredged is too
shallow for trailing suction hopper dredgers and the distances
involved are too long for hydraulic transport. For environmental
projects, which require the dredging of ‘in situ densities’, the
bucket dredger is suitable peace of equipment. When dredging for
construction materials such as sand and gravel, or for minerals
such as gold and tin ores, bucket dredgers are still frequently
used.
