Since establishing a preferred supplier status with China-based IHC Merwede, the global leader in the design, fabrication and supply of equipment for the dredging industry, Cat? engines have powered dozens of dredgers supplied for the Chineserndredging market.rnSupported by the demonstrated success in this continually growing industry, five Cat engines will now power one of the most powerful cutter suction dredgers to operate in the Bohai Bay in Northern China. Commissioned by Tianjin Shunhang in November 2009, the new IHC 8527MP dredger will be amply powered by 2x Cat C280-12 (3700 bkW @ 1000rpm) engines to drive the in-board main dredge pump and 3x Cat 3516B (1717 bkW @ 1500 rpm) auxiliary engines to provide electric power. Both the high-speed Cat 3500B series and the medium-speed Cat C280 series use electronic engine control to perfectly balance power, fuel economy and engine emissions.
