Dredging and solids reclamation are energy intensive operations. The main challenge for manufacturers of dredging equipment is to develop efficient machines that can reduce the use of energy and thus contain the operating cost of projects.
Dragflow has been fully concentrated on submersible dredge pump technology since the beginning and is now able to provide the widest range of electric and hydraulic submersible pump on the market. The presence of a double blade agitator together with pump suction directly in contact with the material make Dragflow pumps able to move slurries with solid content up to 70% by weight. Higher solid concentration means using energy to move solids instead of water! It means possibility to work with smaller diesel engines and reduced discharge pipe diameters.
The result is a considerably reduced operating cost per cubic meter while keeping total daily production at the same level of bigger size cutter suction dredges.
