Canals & River Maintenance 

Using a Truxor machine for canal and river maintenance can offer several advantages due to its specialised design, versatility, and low impact on the environment. Here are some reasons why the Truxor is a valuable tool for these tasks:

​

Amphibious Capability:

The Truxor is amphibious, meaning it can operate both on land and in water. This capability allows it to access areas that may be difficult to reach with conventional equipment, especially in water bodies with varying depths and challenging terrain.

​

Low Environmental Impact:

The Truxor's lightweight construction and low ground pressure minimize the impact on sensitive aquatic ecosystems, preventing soil compaction and habitat disturbance.

​

Selective Vegetation Management:

Equipped with a variety of cutting and harvesting attachments, the Truxor can selectively manage aquatic vegetation, such as overgrown plants and invasive species, without harming beneficial plants and wildlife.

​

Dredging and Sediment Removal:

Truxor machines can be equipped with dredging attachments to remove accumulated sediment, debris, and silt from canals and rivers. This helps maintain water depth, improves water quality, and prevents flooding.

​

Aquatic Habitat Enhancement:

By creating open water channels, pockets, and habitat features, the Truxor can enhance the ecological value of canals and rivers, promoting diverse aquatic habitats for fish, birds, and other wildlife.

​

Navigational Infrastructure Maintenance:

The Truxor can assist in maintaining navigational infrastructure, such as clearing debris around locks, removing blockages, and ensuring safe passage for vessels.

​

Water Flow and Circulation:

The Truxor's operations can help improve water flow and circulation, preventing stagnation and promoting better oxygenation of the water.

​

Flood Control:

The Truxor can be used to clear vegetation and obstructions that impede water flow, contributing to effective flood control measures.

​

Flexibility in Attachments:

With a range of attachments available, the Truxor can adapt to various maintenance tasks, from cutting and dredging to debris removal and bank stabilisation.

​

Efficiency and Productivity:

The Truxor's efficiency allows for timely completion of maintenance tasks, reducing downtime and disruption to navigation and ecosystem health.

​

Safety:

The Truxor provides a stable platform for operators working on water bodies, ensuring safety during maintenance activities.
