An amphibious excavator is specifically Designed to manoeuvre in marshes, Swampy area and soft terrain with the Ability to float on water as an added Safety feature. Thanks to the patented ‘Multi-synchronous hydraulic motor direct drive’ system, the pivotal Technology that positions us at the forefront of amphibious excavator design. The paradigm shift in how modern amphibious machine is being designed has won over the heart of numerous customers, both new and experienced amphibious excavator users in the industry. The amphibious excavator is completely Self-propelled, it can access virtually any soft terrains where standard excavator fear most. Standard excavator sunken into swamp Such machine has proven itself over and over again and has performed Exceedingly well in the followings applications: • Dredging • Landscaping • Erosion control and prevention • Deepening of waterways and river deltas • Maintenance and cleaning of rivers, lakes, shorelines, ponds, etc In the 2013 flood prevention initiative of Indonesia, amphibious excavator has Been the star performer of this high profile project in which the machine played a pivoting role in cleaning and clearing of garbage clogged the Jakarta city reservoir and water canals. Similar machines have also helped the Water Development Board of Bangladesh in dredging, deepening and ongoing maintenance of the country’s main water channel. Amphibious Excavator Design for Functionality, Engineered for Reliability
Industry Leading F res • Final Drive System A break through in final drive design, the patented ‘multi-synchronous direct drive’ hydraulic motor on each pontoon. Multiple active motors propelling each pontoon provide superior tracking power, making it virtually undeterred in any terrain. Many users do not realize that swampy areas are not necessary all flat. Mud viscosity varies widely from area to area and country to country. One would fully appreciate the superior design of our multi- synchronous motor powered pontoon system when faced with the most challenging terrains. Another key advantage is its higher ground speed. We have conducted field tests, and it has been proven that when tracking in high viscosity muddy ground, a higher travelling speed and momentum, when coupled with front and back synchronized motor tracking, can drastically reduce the risk of being stuck and immobilized. Multi-motors design also offers the advantage of redundancy during unforeseen circumstances. • Hydraulic Extendable Pontoons The pontoon undercarriage system is designed to be able to float on water as an added safety feature. It has 3 watertight compartments, hermetically sealed with individual manholes for easy access from the outside for inspection and preventive maintenance. An innovative design in the undercarriage system allows each pontoon to extend outwardly via hydraulic function, providing the extra stability whenever the situation calls for. This is also an welcoming feature where pontoons can be retracted to its narrow position during land transportation. Operator would be pleased to know that all these control functions can be executed comfortably with ease from the cabin. Undercarriages designed for 14 ton class and below excavators will have a hydraulic control system for extending and retracting the pontoons as a standard feature. Pontoons are designed with provision for future addition of supplementary pontoons and spud system if needs arises. A future proof for your investment. Optional Items: • Supplementary pontoons can be added on each side to boost stability in deeper water operation. • Spuds attached to supplementary pontoons help to overcome buoyancy effect, and enhanced operability.

Industry Leading F • Track Chain Each pontoon comes with 2 or 3 strands (model dependent) of heavy duty track chains, constructed with high strength steel. Track shoes/cleats supported by multiple strands of track chains provide the advantage of uniform pulling force and superior weight distribution across each track shoe/cleat. Track chain is one of the most critical components of the undercarriage system, it is entirely in-house design and manufacture, to ensure proper quality control. The criterion of a good design is that it has to perform reliably under various working conditions. The track chain is laser trimmed to extremely tight tolerance. We insist that this is the only way to maintain the quality consistency we demand, and there should be no compromise under any circumstances. • Axle and Sprocket We unequivocally favored a non-weld-on sprocket design. Sprockets are precisely machined and bolted onto the axial. This concept ensures a perfect alignment of each sprocket across the axial, a critical criterion for the longevity of the track chain. The hardworking sprockets, rollers and bushings (embedded within the rollers) are machine finished to high precision and subsequently hardened. This reduces the need for frequent replacement and costly maintenance down time. Rollers are travelling on a strip of wear resistant steel, preventing them from prematurely wearing down to the pontoons. • Track Shoe/Cleat The track shoes/cleats are steel fabricated and are robotically welded to utmost precision. Steel is favored over aluminum alloy because of its malleable property. Its malleability makes it less prone to cracking. Customer may opt for the polymer track shoes. The grade of polymer we have selected is extremely tough and yet appropriately flexible for its application. It can better retain its shape and is less susceptible to deformation than ferrous based or aluminum alloy. Polymer is also lighter than steel and aluminum. Best of all, polymer track shoe comes with 24-month or 2,400-hour warranty whichever comes first. • Long Reach Boom and Attachments One of the key strength is front attachment design. We have wide range of attachments to suit various Application needs, bucket, clamshell, grapple and etc. The amphibious excavator is most ideal with a long reach boom. The convenience of an extended reach and greater working range is always a welcomed advantage when carrying out work in marsh land and for dredging related applications.
