EQUIPMENT

PROPULSION SYSTEM

Conceived to have maximum power with minimal disturbance, the Amphibex AE450 propulsion system has achieved its goals. This small dredger can sail at 5 to 8 knots and is set above the water and its shallow propeller protects marine vegetation and avoids moving the sediment layers deposited at the bottom of the bodies of water.

THE CABIN

The air-conditioned Amphibex cabin offers all the comfort and visibility necessary for the operation of the amphibious general purpose excavator during long hours. The ergonomic positioning of the various manipulation arms of the hydraulic controls and the GPS navigation system contribute to make the work of the operator comfortable and simple.

STABILIZERS AND FLOATS

Its front stabilizers (with floats) and rear (adjustable and tilting) also give the Amphibex AE450 all the mobility necessary to move over ground and to adequately manoeuvre for work on the shore line or on water. They also give the amphibious general purpose excavator the necessary balance to operate effectively on all kinds of bodies of water.
