When the Indonesian Environmental Agency faced heavy river silt accumulation, frequent flooding, and rising maintenance costs, they needed a smarter solution. That’s when they discovered YG Machinery’s river dredging robot — a compact, efficient system designed for modern water management.
Unlike traditional dredgers, this river dredging robot offers fully automated operation, high mobility, and easy maintenance — a perfect fit for Southeast Asia’s complex river networks.
The client — an environmental division in surabaya, indonesia — had previously relied on manual dredging. It was costly, slow, and often unsafe. After extensive evaluation, they selected yg’s river dredging robot for its reliability and advanced design.
Key parameters they valued:
Operating depth: 30–90 meters
Power options: Electric & Diesel
Dredging capacity: Up to 200m³/h
Mobility: Track
Additional features: Camera-assisted monitoring for precise dredging
Anti-corrosion coating for tropical water environments
These features allowed continuous operation even in areas with dense sediment and unstable currents.
Once deployed the river dredging robot removed over 1,000 cubic meters of silt in just five days. That’s 3 times faster than traditional excavation and reduced operational costs by 40%.
The Agency reported:
“This system not only cleared the sediment efficiently but also improved water quality and reduced odor issues. Maintenance became easier, and we can now plan preventive dredging more effectively.”
The demand for river dredging robots is rapidly increasing in countries like Indonesia, Vietnam, Brazil, and Nigeria, where river sedimentation affects agriculture and infrastructure. YG Machinery has already exported similar systems to Chile, Turkey, and Malaysia, providing sustainable waterway solutions for both public and private sectors.
Industry reports predict over 30% market growth for industrial dredging robots in the next five years, driven by environmental compliance and automation trends.
AI and automation are transforming dredging. With a river dredging robot, operators can monitor real-time dredging data and adjust performance remotely — minimizing environmental disturbance and fuel waste. This technology ensures cleaner water discharge and protects aquatic ecosystems, aligning with modern environmental regulations.
