Training & Support

IMS provides extensive on site training during the launch of each dredge system. IMS

is committed to never turning their back on the customer and that is why most of our

customers are repeat buyers.

IMS provides unlimited technical support via phone and e-mail for the operating life of

the equipment.

Emergency visits and warranty visits can be easily arranged .

IMS is working to place a regional field service and warranty technician in Indonesia by

2016.

The technician would take service calls and handle all warranty work locally.

IMS is the only dredge builder in the world with a horizontal cutterhead dredge

simulator for pre-start-up training. Available exclusively at the factory for all IMS

customers.

System has 3 flat screens and a moving base that provides real life motion to make

operator feel like they are on an actual dredge.

Allows new operators to get chair time before starting on a new dredge in the field.

Digital depth gauge.

6

Pipeline Discharge Configuration

Allows dredge to move material 600m away from dredging site depending on material

weight.

Eliminates the need to re-handle material.

Booster pumps can be added for longer pumping distances.

Broadcaster Discharge Configuration Optional IMS Bi-Directional Broadcaster connects to end of discharge ladder

replacing standard discharge line configuration.

Projects high volume of solids in a large arc to the shore of the canal or river.

Water filters off and solids settle on shore. Environmentally friendly.

Hydraulic Dredging: Canal Maintenance

Iraq Canals

A private Iraqi contractor purchased a to rehabilitate a canal system in Iraq.

The Versi-Dredge was chosen for its reliable reputation, high production, and self-

propulsion system.

Over 12 IMS units were shipped to Iraq for rehabilitation of irrigation canals and the

Tigris and Euphrates.

Panama

A contractor selected the Versi-Dredge over several other dredge brands and dredging

methods.

The Starwheel Drive self-propulsion and horizontal cutterhead allowed the contractor

to deepen the canal and maintain an even bottom profile without having to deal with

anchor cables or swing wires.

No other one truck transportable dredge can out perform the Versi-Dredge in inland

canals.

Hydraulic Dredging: Environmental

Burnaby Lake

Two IMS Model Versi-Dredges restored Burnaby Lake in Vancouver, Canada.

Versi-Dredge chose for its versatility and environmental friendly cutter design. Used

IMS’s optional GPS accessory for recording progress against a pre-dredging survey.

Endangered turtles were present in lake. Low turbidity of cutterhead was key to

allowing the contractor to proceed with project.

Project won multiple environmental awards.

Hydraulic Dredging: Port Maintenance Port Umm Qasr, Iraq

A Versi-Dredge cleaning out patrol boat lifts at Port Umm Qasr located at mouth of

river.

River is silting up boat lifts.

Patrol boat slips and lift area cleared by Versi-Dredge.

Allowed Iraqi patrol vessels to perform critical missions.

Unit selected by US Dept. of Defense, The Naval Transition Team (NATT) and Royal

British Navy.

Hydraulic Dredging: Harbor

Maintenance

North Wales

A Versi-Dredge performs maintenance dredging at Deganwy Marina in North Wales.

Unit was able to maneuver in marina without disturbing boat traffic or moving docks.

The dredge was featured on the BBC.

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Weedmaster

Overview Cutting Technology

Converts dredger into weed harvesting system.

IMS holds exclusive patent on WeedMaster technology which allows dredge to cut and

pump vegegation.

No need for unloading barges or re-handling previously cut vegetation. Dredge cuts

and pumps the material over several hundred meters away to a disposal area or

broadcasts it on the side of canals for wetland restoration.

The WeedMaster can handle floating vegetation, rooted vegetation (below water line),

and submerged vegetation.

Competitive Advantages

YELLOW = Superior Capability & Performance

13

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Irrigation

Canal Cleaning Angola Irrigation Canals

Weedmaster Cutterhead attachment used to remove 25 km of dense vegetation from

agriculture irrigation canals.

Results:

Dramatic water flow increase.

Roads that have been flooded for decades are now dry.

Government purchased a unit after contractor proved the Versi-Dredge worked.

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Hyacinths

Removal Ecuador

IMS won global tender to supply hydraulic dredger / weed harvester for cleaning

Laguna de Colta in Ecuador which is over 2km above sea level.

Ecuador’s Minister of Environment launched the system in late 2012.

The system cut 10 ft. (3m) tall reeds and chopped them into small pieces and

pumped them several hundred meters away.

No barges or auxiliary equipment were required.

14

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Hyacinths

Removal Ecuador

IMS awarded tender to supply vegetation harvesting machine for dam project in

Ecuador.

The Versi-Dredge with Weedmaster was able to clear the 2 ft. (0.6m) tall hyacinths

weed cover by cutting the vegetation and pumping it up to 1,640’ (500m) away to a

discharge area.

No barges or auxiliary equipment were required.

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Reed

Removal Government of India

IMS Versi-Dredge chosen by Government of India Enterprise, over 2 European

competitors in global tender.

Client chose IMS because of its long standing reputation in the canal dredging

equipment sector and the equipments ability to out perform other systems on the

market.

Outfitted w/ standard cutter and Weedmaster.

Weedmaster cleared weed choked canals around a government operated lignite mine

that supplies fuel for East India’s power grid.

BEFORE AFTER

15

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Dense

Vegetation Lake Helen, FL

Weedmaster used to remove dense tussocks (floating vegetation islands) from large

lake.

Versi-Dredge then restored lake to its original depth w/ the Excavator Cutterhead.

The contractor paid for the equipment on this one job alone. Over 500,000 cubic yards

removed.

Hydraulic Weed Harvesting: Hyacinth

Removal Thailand

DKSH Thailand, IMS Representative for Thailand, purchased a Versi-Dredge and did

a live demonstration for 200 prospective buyers.

This is how confident they were in showing how well the Weedmaster worked in

hyacinths removal.
