 Skimmers  

Purpose built 

Our range of Skimmer Loaders are purpose built for the skimming of material deposits from the surface of sand filter beds, and the loading of this material into a following Dumper Truck. 250 or self contained Hopper (150 only). 
 
All machines are compact and lightweight for easy transportation. The skid steer hydro-static transmission enables exceptional manoeuvrability. 

  The Sand Skimmer 

Developed over 20 years ago by Morrish Engineering and is used by the majority of Water Companies throughout the United Kingdom. 
 
The system will clean their slow sand filter beds. A thin layer of dirty sand is removed by the skimmer from the surface of the filter bed by a blade and auger head system then elevated to a following dumper truck for disposal. By removing the auger head and elevator the tracked base unit can be fitted with optional Bulldozer blade that can be fitted with an optional laser levelling system.
