The Truxor
Range of Amphibious Machines and Attachments.
The unique
Truxor multi-functional machines have made great advances
on both land and water since the first machine was introduced in 1996,
this being the first of its kind on the market. Its' amphibious
properties make it the ideal choice for working in and around water.
Driven with care and with its' minimal ground pressure, damage to river
banks and sensitive areas can be minimised making the
Truxor
ideal for working on golf courses, nature reserves and public parks
where larger, heavier machines have difficulty operating.
The Truxor
is easy to drive and can turn on its' own axis in water. The joy-stick steering is precise and is ideal for operating in confined spaces
such as marinas. The wide range of attachments make it an ideal tool
for a variety of tasks. The quick connection system allows for the easy
exchange of most tools. The Truxor can be converted from a
reed cutter to a collector in the blink of an eye.
The machines are
normally delivered filled with standard hydraulic oil ISO WG 46 or they
can be supplied with environmentally friendly bio-degradable oil.
We are pleased
to offer two similar looking models who’s operating capabilities differ
with the size of engine, hydraulic system and optional tools.
The Truxor DM 4700
B is the original which has been continuously updated and improved
since its' launch in 1996. We recommend this machine primarily for reed
harvesting and the cutting and collecting of aquatic plants.
The Truxor DM 5000
is our latest model with a different hydraulic system and a larger
engine as the power source for the tool attachments. In addition to its'
cutting and collecting capabilities this new machine is designed to
offer more possibilities for dredging and oil decontamination.

TRUXOR DM 4700 B
  |
The Truxor DM 4700 B is the popular original from manufacturer's Dorotea Mekaniska. Since the original machines were sold in 1996 they
are now exported and are in use all over the world. When originally
introduced the machine was unique in its field. The first amphibious
machine capable of reed cutting, gathering, dredging and digging. Today
the concept is still state-of-the-art and the Truxor is a market
leader in its class.
The DM 4700 B
is the versatile harvester operated by two joysticks to steer the
machine and operate the lift arm when using the various attachment
tools. Its' amphibious capabilities allow it to travel effortlessly
between land and water. The paddle tracks give excellent manoeuvrability
in either environment. The connection system on the lift arm allows the
operator to easily attach most of the tools quickly and effortlessly.
The Truxor's lightweight construction and great mobility allows
for easy transportation by standard road trailer avoiding the high cost
of delivery and cranage.
The DM 4700 B is the ideal tool for aquatic weed harvesting, reed
cutting and collecting and general marshland maintenance. For larger
power requirements we recommend the DM 5000.

TOOL OPTIONS
|
Dredge Pump 2500
For pumping sediment. The feed screw aerates the
bottom so that the pump receives an even flow. The pump can also be
equipped with a suction funnel which is recommended when the sediment it
light and soft. A cutting device at the opening of the suction pump cuts
roots and other soft objects. The pump is controlled from a start panel
mounted by the driver's seat.
|
 |
Doro Pump
The Doro Pump is the
new addition to our range of pumps designed specifically for the new
Truxor DM 5000 running directly from the hydraulic engine. It has a
capacity of 10 - 40 m³/h. The pump is mounted on a telescopic arm (sold
separately). A rotating wheel with horizontal cutters and vertical teeth
aerates the sediment and cuts off roots and soft materials to facilitate feeding of material into
the pump. The rotating wheel makes the pump easier to manoeuvre than its
predecessor which had a feeding screw at the pump inlet. The feeding is
important to providing an even flow of sediment to the pump; also
facilitated by the knives positioned at the inlet of the pump.
|
 |
Sala Roll Pump
Pumps light sediment with a minimum amount of
water. The pump works with a strong vacuum and high pressure. This high
pressure allows sediment to be transported long distances. The dredging
can be carried out without the water becoming discoloured. The dredging
pipe is mounted on to the lift arm which can be pressed down into the
sediment. Light and soft deposits can be sucked directly from the
bottom.
|
 |
|
Doro Cutter 3090/3091
The Doro Cutter 3090 is recommended for cutting of
normal aquatic vegetation and is usually the obvious choice in most
waters. The cutter is operated hydraulically and is easily connected to
the Truxor’s equipment bracket. Cutting depth is 1m. The knives are
exchangeable and the working breadth may be varied from 2.2 to 4 m. The
cutter requires water for lubrication during work and is therefore not
suitable for use on land. A stone-triggered system protects it from
breaking the knives
against solid objects. The Doro
Cutter 3091 is the same model of cutter, but has an extended cutting
depth of 1.4m Both models are delivered as standard with a knife work
width of 4 metres.
|
 |
|
Doro Cutter ESM 1700
This cutter is side-mounted on Truxor for cutting
along riversides and
channels so that the angle of the cutting unit can
be adjusted. The knives are a Busati model which means that the cutter
does not need water for lubrication when working. Doro Cutter ESM 1700
is equipped with an automatic stone-triggered solution which protects
the cutter when motion is stopped due to solid objects. The cutter has a
work width of 1.7 m and a cutting depth of 0.5 m. It has good capacity
and the Doro Cutter ESM 1700 cuts thick reeds and plant growth without
problems.
|
 |
|
Doro Cutter ESM 2100
For the cutting of reed and larger aquatic plants
found in the margins and along river banks. The Doro Cutter ESM 2100 is
a front attached cutter with Busati model double action knives which
means that the cutter does not need water as a lubricant when working.
The knives do not require water for lubrication and are suitable for use
in shallow water and in marshlands. The Doro Cutter ESM 2100 has good
capacity and can also be used for thick reeds. Work width 2.1 m and
cutting depth 0.5m. |
 |
|
Doro Cutter ESM 2200
Doro Cutter ESM 2200 cuts and gathers at the same
time making it the ideal tool for working in marinas and small streams
where water is constantly moving. If only the cutting function is
required the collection basket can be easily removed. Doro Cutter ESM
2200 has a work width
of 2.1 m and a cutting depth of approximately 0.8
min water. The knives are a Busati double-action model which means that
the cutter does not require water for lubrication while working. |
 |
|
Reed rake, standard
With collapsible side sections, the Standard Rake
is used for gathering and
transporting plants after reed cutting. The rake can be complemented
with strainer plates for gathering of refuse, algae and absorbers (oil
decontamination).
Working width 2 m or 3.5 m.
|
 |
|
Rake, with springing pegs
When the waterside is uneven, the material can be
raked into the water using this attachment and then collected using
the standard rake.
Work width 2.5 m
Weight
30 kg |
 |
|
Rake, high tipping
This rake has a high tipping height which
facilitates loading onto e.g. trailers or barges. The rake is made of
perforated steel plating and can gather smaller particles such as
litter, algae and absorbers (oil decontamination).
Work width 2.13 m
Weight 68 kg
Max. lift height in water 1.3 m
Max.
lift height on land 1.7 m
|
 |
|
Strainer Plates
Collection is just as important as cutting. Cut water plants left in the
water act as a fertiliser. We therefore recommend that cut plants always
be collected and removed. By gathering water plants and picking them up,
you also help to remove part of the "over-fertilisation" from the lake.
For those using their reed cutter in different type of water, we usually
recommend cleaning the machine between moves in order to prevent
spreading undesired water plants to new water systems.
|
 |
|
Lifting Rake
The strong construction and heavy duty forks make
it an excellent tool for lifting heavier objects such as tree branches,
rocks and debris from waterways, canals and beaches.
Work width: 1.2 m
Weight:
36 kg
|
 |
|
Excavator
The excavator
can be mounted on
either of the Truxor models. The unit becomes a floating excavator
offering unique possibilities. Ideal for clearing inlets and around
sluice gates, digging channels and even cable laying. The excavator is
operated from the drivers position with the two
lever operating consul connected to a central
adjustable bracket. The amphibious nature of the Truxor allows
excavation work to be carried out in areas inaccessible to conventional
equipment.
|
 |
|
Grip bucket and log grab
The grip bucket is used for the removal of silt
and submerged objects from canal bottoms or lakes. Using the telescopic
arm gives a working depth of 1.7 m. For surface work the standard
bracket is used for the bucket or log grab giving a greater lifting
power without the telescopic arm.
 |
 |
Cultivator
The Doro Miller
is used as a
restoration miller for wetlands, beaches and lake bottoms. The miller is
available in different work widths; they are exchangeable and can be
dismounted from the operating unit. The operating unit is mounted on the
lifting arm. When water lily roots and other roots are to be removed, a
rotary knife is attached using an extension on the lifting arm which
gives a work depth of 1.6 m.
|
 |
Oil Decontamination
The new Truxor 5000 has been designed to
accommodate a new range of products for oil spill clean-up.
The Doroskimmer 400 can be used with two
types of pump for use with heavy or light oil.
The Skimmer is delivered with a brush roller of
mixed brush thicknesses which is suitable for decontamination of most
type of oils. Combine with Sala or Foilex pumps.
Capacity 0.20 m3/h |
 |
|
The Sala Roll Pump can be used
independently for dredging or “vacuuming” oil residue where the skimmer
cannot operate.
The Sala Pump is a suitable pump for
decontamination operations for thick-flowing or polluted substances in
hard-to-reach places. A very strong vacuum gives a high suction
capacity. The high pressure transports the substances long stretches.
The Sala Roll Pump is used separately with a suction piece or in
combination with the Doroskimmer 400.
|
 |
|
Foilex
is a high capacity pump for use on larger oil spills.
The Foilex is a patented low-speed TDS Pump with
"Twin Disc Screw" pump technology with a higher capacity than the
conventional screw pump. The inlet has cutting knives and can pump both
thick and thin substances. A Foilex pump is mounted on a Doroskimmer 400
and can also be adapted for use separately. Delivered with a 3 m
pressure tube Ø
100 mm.
Capacity: 18 m3/h at 6 bar |
 |
Doro Tank
Oil decontamination has different prerequisites
for different environments. During the final phase of work, there are
usually smaller areas with pools of oil where it can be more practical
to use a mobile tank.
The Doro Tank has a 200 litre capacity and is
mounted between the pontoons and has couplings for simple connection to
pumps as well as a connection for emptying the tank. The Doro Tank is
used in combination with a Doroskimmer 400.
|
 |
Trailer LMT 2500
The Trailer LMT 2500
is specifically
designed to transport the Truxor. The trailer tip action and ramps allow
for easy loading and off loading of the machines. Guide rails are fixed
to the bed of the trailer to ensure the Truxor is located centrally and
to avoid movement during transportation. The specially designed chassis
of highly durable steel and I beams provide a strong, lightweight
trailer. Maintenance is minimal due to the design and quality of the
materials.
