Excavators That ‘Walk on Water? It’s Not Magic – It’s Engineering!

When Can Excavators Work Underwater?

Different from most traditional excavators that can only operate on land, water-land amphibious construction marvels have now shattered this imagination! No need to replace the entire machine—simply modify your existing excavator with a buoyant pontoon chassis, and you can unlock the “water-walking” skill, easily tackling complex water projects like river dredging and wetland development! If you don’t have equipment yet, River Machinery offers one-stop leasing and procurement services to help you efficiently launch into the amphibious construction new model!

River Machinery’s Client A once undertook a river dredging project. Facing the challenges of deep sludge accumulation and a wide water area, traditional equipment was powerless. After choosing to lease our 20-ton amphibious excavator, the equipment equipped with an extended arm, positioning piles, and side buoys operated precisely like a “giant on water”—the extended arm reached deep into the river center, positioning piles stabilized the machine against water currents, and side buoys ensured smooth operation throughout. Compared with conventional equipment, the construction efficiency increased by over 50%, the project duration was significantly shortened, and the engineering quality was highly recognized by multiple parties!

Core Advantages of Large Amphibious Excavators (with Extended Arms)

1. Ultra-long Working Radius: Break through the limitations of traditional equipment to easily reach complex areas such as deep river centers and wide water distances.
2. Deep Excavation Capability: Handle high-difficulty tasks like deep riverbed dredging and underwater foundation excavation in one step.
3. Multi-scenario Adaptability: Integrate functions of excavation, crushing, and grabbing to flexibly deal with various working conditions such as sludge, rocks, and debris.
4. Efficient and Stable Construction: Large equipment with strong power, combined with extended arms and positioning devices, reduces movement frequency and ensures efficient and safe operations.
