Ellicott Dredges

Ellicott Dredges engineers and manufactures innovative dredges and dredging equipment, which are being used for infrastructure projects worldwide. Ellicott® is the world's oldest and largest builder of small and medium-sized cutter suction dredges. We built all of the dredges used in the original construction of the Panama Canal and, since then, have focused on the world market for cutter dredges. Ellicott's dredges are used for sand mining, harbor and navigation maintenance, water reservoir restoration, river and channel dredging, beach restoration and erosion control, and environmental clean-ups to name a few. We have designed and manufactured over 2000 dredges, more than any other manufacturer, and have served customers in over 100 countries. Ellicott engineering leverages the latest 3D modeling technology available to ensure that our design efforts are streamlined from concept through production. We utilize Finite Element Analysis techniques to eliminate the potential for design failures and expedite our time to market. Ellicott's engineering staff draws from both a long history and a diverse background to bring sophisticated designs to the market which are easy to operate and maintain.
