![]() Furthermore, the excavator can place wet, sloppy sediment away from the machine so that you can continue to work while sediment dewaters off to the side. Often the excavator can load or dispose of material without having to reposition. The advantage is that you can move sediment over 100’ in distance in one rotation, which is impressive. It also allows you to relay or place material the same distance from the machine. The extended boom allows the operator to remove sediment from the stable shoreline up to 70’ out into the lake. Larger excavators are the most commonly types and extend a standard range boom from 20-30’ to 50-70’. Typically, small mini and midi excavators can extend the reach along the ground from 12-15’ to 15-25’. ![]() The reach of a standard excavator is doubled or tripled with a long reach boom. Long reach excavators are fitted with a longer boom and smaller bucket to enable it to reach a further distance. The most common type is the long reach excavator. VORTEX removal rates are ACTUAL removal rates as seen with actual material moved using Magnetite black iron sand and rocks weighing 2.375kg per liter as to the sample product.River Sand incorporates the use of several types of specialized excavators for its mechanical dredging projects. VORTEX performance figures DO NOT have a small print clause with an Asterix symbol next to figures which would represent "best case Scenario" removal rates as opposed to actual removal rates. Suction does the work and water flow continues the work done. Once the hose is clear then water flow takes over. Powerful, simple, effective.Įxample: Getting a "RIDICULOUSLY THICK MILKSHAKE" ® ™ to move through a straw is similar to dredging a very sticky seabed and suction is key because if you drive a suction hose deep into sticky mud the water flow in the suction hose will often stall and the hose is essentially filled with a 'plug' of mud and only high suction will clear the hose. Vortex dredges have been designed to combine high suction values and high water volumes to tear up sticky soils with very high suction then keep it flowing with high water volume. ![]()
