 Short Chain Ladders
Category:
Dredge Plant
Description:
Short chain ladder used on hydraulic pipeline dredges to dredge hard clay and mud, where
cutterheads are not effective. Works with hull pump or ladder pump dredges. Used in the mining
industry to cut through clay and mud seams. Cutter-bars are attached to an endless chain with a
drive sprocket on its upper end and a tumbler located on the ower end. A suction head is located
just inboard of the tumbler and removes the material sheared off the bottom by the cutter bars.
