Suction dredger with autonomous motion control via GPS

Greater efficiency and material protection At the end of August, World Dredgers GmbH & Co. KG, Wesel (WD), installed a new suction dredger in Elerweerd, Belgium, for the Steengoed consortium, consisting of eight gravel companies. What's special about it: Thanks to the autonomous GPS-based motion control, the dredger operates independently for optimized and efficient extraction operations. Even in the event of malfunctions or material collapse, the suction dredger automatically switches over and retracts.

More efficiency for your projects

The extraction of raw materials through wet excavation is basically about the interaction of the individual components, both from a technical point of view and with regard to process control. Only when all main components, parts and their parameters are coordinated and interact with each other in the process - data exchange - you do achieve a sustainable, measurable increase in efficiency of up to 32% energy savings. We at World Dredgers optimize individual sub-areas as well as the overall workflow from a single source. Our competence is based on classic mechanical engineering, individual project and process planning as well as decades of experience in raw material extraction.
