Rotomite - Model SD-110 -Self-Propelled Diesel Dredges
The SD-110 is Crisafulli`s lightest self propelled dredge. The hydraulic thruster allows the SD-110 to dredge irregular shaped ponds, and maneuver into boat slips, and other tight locations.
Portability. Weighting only 9,000 lbs, with an aluminum super structure, the SD-110 measures only 25 x 8.5 feet, can be lifted by almost any crane, and is transportable anywhere in the US without special permitting on a regular deck-over trailer. Custom trailers are available for easier installation and removal of the dredge on sites with boat ramps.
Easy to operate. Designed with the operator in mind, the dredge has on-board storage in the operator’s station and a 12 VDC power point for the operator’s personal items - i. e., cell phone - with four additional 12V DC circuits, and an adjustable helm. A walkway behind the operator’s station enables safe, easy operator movement from one side of the dredge to the other.

Crisafulli`s hydraulically powered propulsion and steering system for the Rotomites is unique in the dredge world. Providing both thrust and steering, the System provides adequate force to enable the horizontal auger on the cutterhead to engage, cut, and dislodge compacted solids.
Unlike propulsion systems on many competitors` dredges, that either crawl along the lagoon bottom thereby generating substantial turbidity, or drive one or more "spuds" into the lagoon bottom that must be removed and the dredge relocated repeatedly by a support vessel during the dredging process, the Crisafulli propulsion system generates little or no turbidity and enables the Rotomite to be self-sufficient and move easily around the lagoon, canal, or river without external support. The System provides both forward and reverse thrust. Rotomite propulsion systems are more flexible and versatile enabling Rotomites to be more productive and less costly to operate.
