Rotomite - Model 6000 CD -Self-Propelled Diesel Dredges
Crisafulli’s all-purpose Rotomite 6000 CD dredge, powered by a 275 Continuous Horsepower diesel engine, is engineered for a full range of dredging applications from soft to highly abrasive material and slurries, including sand and gravel. Incorporating many design features from the successful Rotomite 6000, the Rotomite 6000 CD achieves very high productivity, coupled with relatively low cost resulting in an rapid ROI (Return On Investment). The Rotomite-6000 CD is designed for customer convenience and safety, with a forward mounted heated & air-conditioned operator’s cab with 360-degree visibility, and a safety guardrail surrounding the dredge.

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.
