The cab

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 position of the various manipulation arms of the hydraulic controls and GPS navigation system contribute to make the work of the operator comfortable and simple.

In addition, the seat and controllers can move from the left to the right of the cabin to facilitate the visibility and maneuvrability during work near structures.

The C32 Caterpillar engine

Equipped with Caterpillar C32 diesel engine with 1350 hp, the Amphibex AE1200P general purpose dredge has all the power necessary to execute its tasks. Caterpillar has also worked with Normrock to develop a robust transmission second to none in performance.

Stabilizers and floats

The front stabilizers (with or without floats) and rear spuds both have adjustable and tilting capabilties.

The Amphibex AE1200P has all the mobility necessary to move on land and water. These items give it the necessary balance to operate effectively on all kinds of water systems.

Positioning System

The Amphibex AE1200P positioning system can be fitted with very sophisticated GPS positioning, particularly useful when pumping contaminated sediments. Day or night, these systems are used to precisely determine where the amphibious excavator should be.

In addition, for work requiring a greater degree of accuracy, Amphibex can be equipped with Real Time positioning (RTK) equipment, a very precise tool.

Propulsion system

Conceived to have maximum power with minimal disturbance, the Amphibex AE1200P propulsion system has achieved its goals. It 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.
