Pebble Mining Bucket Wheel Dredger

Yunfeng's bucket wheel dredger range includes mechanical excavation equipment for underwater materials such as pebbles, hard soil and gravel-bearing deposits. The River Bucket Wheel Dredger is a relevant reference for pebble mining applications, using a rotating bucket wheel equipped with digging buckets to excavate riverbed materials.

For projects involving coarse or dense riverbed deposits, bucket wheel excavation provides a mechanical alternative to conventional suction-based dredging. The equipment configuration should correspond to the material characteristics, required excavation depth, production target and conveying distance.

Reference Technical Specifications

The following specifications are published for Yunfeng's River Bucket Wheel Dredger. They provide a reference configuration for evaluating pebble mining projects and are not confirmed specifications of every Pebble Mining Bucket Wheel Dredger configuration.

These figures belong to the published River Bucket Wheel Dredger configuration. Actual capacity and equipment specifications must be established for the selected configuration and project operating conditions.

Excavation Applications and Equipment Configurations

Yunfeng's bucket wheel dredger range covers different excavation requirements and equipment arrangements:

• Pebble and hard soil excavation: The River Bucket Wheel Dredger is described for handling hard soil and pebbles through mechanical bucket wheel excavation.
• Heavy-duty material excavation: The Heavy Duty Bucket Wheel Dredger is designed for dense clay, silt, sandy soil and gravel-bearing soil, covering soil classes II–V.
• Stationary dredging: The Stationary Bucket Wheel Dredger uses an anchoring system for positioning and does not have self-propelled navigation capability.

These configurations represent different equipment arrangements within Yunfeng's bucket wheel dredger range and should not be treated as interchangeable specifications.

Material Conveying and Processing Configuration

In Yunfeng's published Bucket Wheel Dredging Machine configuration, multiple digging teeth are installed around the rotating bucket wheel. Excavated underwater material is collected mechanically and transferred through the dredging system. A related configuration uses a dredging pump and pipeline to convey excavated material to the designated discharge location.

For pebble mining projects, the conveying arrangement should correspond to the material composition, target output and downstream processing layout. Screening and washing equipment should be specified separately according to the project's processing requirements.

Manufacturing and Project Support

Yunfeng Dredger Company has an R&D department, a CAD design center, a quality control department and an after-sales service department. Its published company information identifies more than 200 employees, including 3 senior engineers, 8 dredging equipment design personnel, 5 quality inspection and control engineers, and 10 after-sales service engineers.

These resources support the company's dredging equipment design, manufacturing, quality management and customer service activities.
