Cutter Drive Assembly
Pioneer Dredge supplied our complete new cutter system and ladder point for Dredge Mullen. They were very accommodating throughout the design process; they incorporated our ideas, and worked as a partner. We will look to Pioneer again for our dredging equipment needs.

Project: Newt Marine purchased the 20" Cutter Head Dredge named the "Mullen" from the U.S. Corps of Engineers in 2014. Pioneer Dredge engineered and manufactured a new Cutter Drive assembly essentially updating the dredge’s antiquated digging design. In addition to modifying the structure of the ladder, Pioneer also consulted on modifications to the cutter’s hydraulic system.
