BM1700 is a self-propelled beach cleaning machine developed to separate foreign materials from the sand and level the beach surface. With a 160 cm cleaning width, adjustable cleaning depth and a theoretical cleaning capacity of up to 12.000 m² per hour, it can be used for the regular cleaning of large beach areas.

The belt-screen system separates foreign materials from the sand and returns the screened sand to the beach surface. The separated waste is collected in the machine’s waste hopper.

BM1700 is a professional sand cleaning machine developed for mechanical cleaning on beaches and sandy areas.

The machine’s collection system takes sand and foreign materials into the cleaning unit. The belt-screen system screens the sand and separates the foreign materials. The screened sand is returned to the ground, while the collected waste is stored in a separate waste hopper. The waste in the hopper can be emptied into a suitable waste container using the hydraulic system.

Thanks to its self-propelled design, the machine does not require a tractor or any other towing vehicle to operate.
