With the installation of a RUD TECDOS drive system in:
- cleaning systems and plants for stormwater tanks, screens and sieves,
- longitudinal clarifiers,
- solar dryers and drying plants,
- flood-proof installations, such as dams, weir closures, barrage closures, gates for flood protection as well as
- gates for dry docks and locks and much more.
, operational failures and cost-intensive maintenance of the plants can be avoided in the future. RUD TECDOS components (round steel chain, PI-GAMMA, OMEGA DRIVE and TECDOS end fixings) form weather-resistant and durable closure constructions in hydraulic steelwork that meet the high requirements.
Hydraulic steel construction - Optimum screen cleaning through maintenance-friendly designs
Screen cleaning systems in hydraulic steel construction require individual solutions for optimum efficiency and customer satisfaction. The TECDOS OMEGA DRIVE and the associated drive components guarantee optimum implementation of screen cleaning and screenings disposal. The TECDOS OMEGA DRIVE system is characterized by a long service life and a maintenance-friendly drive solution. The robustness and long service life of the TECDOS round steel chain and the maintenance-friendly TECDOS OMEGA DRIVE drive solution can withstand any weather conditions (heat, cold, ice) and guarantee trouble-free operation of the screen cleaner.
Drive for clarifiers
Benefit from RUD TECDOS drive technology with its weather-resistant components and avoid operational failures and cost-intensive maintenance in the future. With the installation of RUD products in longitudinal clarifiers, grit and grease traps, your scraper will function safely and efficiently.

Operator for flood protection gates
Hydraulic steel construction - optimum flood protection thanks to durable, weather-resistant operator technology
The reliable operation and movement of flood protection gates is of particular importance in flood-prone areas. Flood protection gates secure passages, jetties, residential areas, companies, etc. and are reliably operated along rivers, lakes and coasts by the TECDOS OMEGA DRIVE drive technology system. The durable TECDOS OMEGA DRIVE drive technology system defies harsh weather conditions (heat, cold, ice) and withstands the most extreme conditions.
Drive for caisson doors (ebb gates)
Dry dock caisson doors are used to open and close locks in tide-dependent shipyards, in shipbuilding and in ports. The outer gate, the flood gate, and the inner gate, the ebb gate, are therefore exposed to the tides and a tide-free basin. The outer flood gate and the inner ebb gate are opened and closed using two TECDOS PI-GAMMA head drives, the matching TECDOS round steel chains and TECDOS components. The TECDOS PI-GAMMA drive technology system pulls the floodgates horizontally into the conveying chamber and defies all weather conditions.
