Improving Equipment Efficiency and Reducing Maintenance Cost with Advanced Hydraulics

摘要

The common source of power within cable operated dredging systems is the engine. The power supplied to hydraulic systems is generated by the powertrain. The powertrain is most often found within the excavator, but can also be affixed to the bucket in an electro-hydraulic system. The new Hybrid, designed by Cable Arm~® & NRG Dynamix~®, utilizes the electro-hydraulic system to generate power near the bucket's point of closing impact while further introducing accumulators to store the appropriate power required to activate pistons. This simple, yet highly effective change can generate closing pressures of up to 500,000 pounds. Optional vibrating technology can also be included to facilitate greater bucket penetration into hard/dense materials. The hybrid's hydraulic design, when combined with additional vibrating technology, can cut through trees, pilings, and underwater obstructions to reduce sediment loss during ascent by providing a tightly sealed bucket. By providing complete bucket closure, full loads of environmental waste, without leakage and further dispersion, can be obtained.
