题名: Three Decades Later, Bergeron's Clamshell Bucket Still Delivers
正文语种: eng
作者: FRANK MCCORMACK
摘要: Thirty years ago, Ray Bergeron stopped by the office of The Waterways Journal to explain his new clamshell bucket design (see "This Week in the WJ"). Two years earlier, in 1989, Bergeron had noticed how inefficient existing clamshells were for removing sediment, only carrying a third of the crane lifting capacity per grab. He set out to drastically improve that number, and by 1993, Bergeron and his company, Cable Arm Inc., began delivering patented, environmentally responsible mechanical clamshells. The design was such a breakthrough for both maintenance and environmental dredging applications that the Western Dredging Association named Bergeron its annual dredger of the year in 2010.
