All of Proline’s dredges are equipped with 'Nomad' matting for the entire length of the sluice box. Proline’s system not only provides impressive, consistent fine gold recovery, but is much lighter and easier to work with than the cumbersome 'triple-sluice' and 'multi-stage' designs offered by others. This allows the heavier values to settle out much sooner, while at the same time working the lighter material out of the sluice box, constantly enriching the concentrate. Proline’s highly acclaimed 'wave' classifier is unique in that it creates a pulsing or 'jigging' action similar to that which is found in many large mining operations. Critical attention has been directed at riffle profile, riffle timing, and classifier design. Although the changes are not always apparent, their results have been rewarding. The recovery systems in Proline’s dredges are always under constant development. It has proven to be one of the toughest materials available, as it is very UV resistant and maintains its pliability much longer than some other types of plastic currently being used.Īll Proline pontoons have stainless steel threaded inserts cast into them which makes for easy assembly and maximum strength. We've always used the finest cross-link polyethylene plastic in Proline’s floatation. The result of this design is greater dredge vacuum, less horse power required for operation, fewer rock jams, and improved fine gold recovery. In addition, the configuration of the flare dredge allows the sluice box to sit much closer to the water, improving power and efficiency. The flare's rapid expansion causes all dredged material to slow down and begin to spread out before reaching the sluice box for improved particle distribution. There are several advantages that come from this design.

The flare dredges are easily distinguished from the dredges that use a hopper, or 'header box', in that they incorporate a large expansion chamber or 'flare' which is located between the dredge's power jet and the sluice box. Many years of research and development, along with decades of invaluable dredging experience, have gone into the dredges they build.
