AMPHIBIOUS EXCAVATOR

AMPHIBIOUS EXCAVATOR

GO WHERE YOU HAVEN’T BEFORE!

Rapid Dam Contractors offers services for the toughest environments around

The excavators are able to float on the surface of a lake or work in extremely boggy conditions, where a normal machine could not. The prime purpose of developing the amphibious machines was to increase our capability of working on very soft terrain or in water up to 1.2 metres deep. The machines have been fitted with a long – reach boom and stick to give a combined length of 12 – 14 metres reach.

In addition to working on ponds, dams and salt lakes they can be used for:

  • Cleaning out slime ponds.

  • Removal of drainage silt from flood or storm events.

  • Dredging and general marina maintenance.

  • Tailings management.

  • Establishment of diversion channels and Water Storage Facilities in very
    wet boggy areas.
