Several trailers were also launched at
this year’s Plantworx 2013 exhibition in
the UK. Dutch manufacturer Nooteboom,
for example, presented a new 3-axle
extending step frame trailer, a 4-axle step

PendleX Neck model. The PendleX Neck
has a payload of 110 tonnes and, when
fully extended, provides a complete
loading deck. The model on show was
for customer Les Searle from Horsham,
