Suction excavator

Suction excavator type dino mega 3

The suction excavator loosens and sucks up dry and wet materials such as mud, soil, gravel, crushed stone and building rubble.

The suction excavator shows its advantages wherever conventional excavation with excavators is not possible or permitted due to special local conditions or safety requirements.

Areas of application

Safe exposure of cables and lines

Reliable excavation in confined spaces

Suction of sludge from ponds or biotopes

Suction of materials over long distances (suction length up to 100 m / suction depths over 20 m; depending on the suction material)

Advantages

Efficiency

Efficient, virtually dust-free excavation of trenches and excavation pits with unknown lengths of pipes and cables

Precision

Error-free exposure of lines and cables

Flexibility

Releasing, picking up and transporting with just one vehicle

Speed

Up to 12 times faster than conventional manual shoveling
