In its simplest form, dredging refers to the common underwater excavation activity. Over time, dredging has evolved far beyond mere excavation and now encompasses a variety of tasks including cleaning, maintenance, construction and transportation.

In contemporary applications, dredging involves removing a variety of sediments – sand, silt, rock fragments and particles – from the beds of oceans, rivers and lakes. The extracted material is then transported and stored at the new destination for other uses.

In essence, the core of dredging can be simply summarized as the “excavation-transfer-reuse” process of sediments.

When a marine crane is used for loading and unloading operations between ships and shores and between ships, the equipment itself is relatively light and occupies a small area. The efficiency of the equipment used during the operation is very high. High, during the operation process, the equipment operates more sensitively and the equipment has good stability during operation.

Marine cranes are very suitable for dock dredging and dock construction operations, such as the use of floating sand unloaders, grab dredgers and other equipment. Users can make hooks or use grabs during the selection process. During the production process, the specific type of equipment will also become different due to different production batches.

Our products include various types of dredging grabs, such as flat-cut shell grabs and round crown grabs equipped with electro-hydraulic drives. These grabs are easy to install and suitable for ensuring effective sediment trapping and resistant to wear.Explore our crane packages designed for a variety of dredging operations, including floating cranes, grab cranes, stationary cranes and knuckle boom cranes. These cranes support a variety of loading operations and dredging activities on board vessels, offering full customization to meet specific requirements.
