Fascinating and brought back some memories. I retired 15 years ago after approx 40 years working in the automotive and hose and fittings industry .Some of my early customers were Crane Fruehauf, Taskers, Foden, ERF, Guy motors etc many of which have long disappeared.
I loved the commercial step deck I used here in NZ. 4 axle with last steering, flip out ramps. Such a great piece of kit. Paired nicely with our Volvo.
Excellent content, along with explaining the whole process from start to Birth Certificate. The only thing that was missing was putting a radius on the hardwood around the hold-downs and a little oil on the binders for the dovetail ramp. I hope more content is on the way.
I wish we could get quality trailers like this in the USA! What is the advantage of welding two C-Channels together for the drawbar, instead of using a square tube?
@sccolbert, if you visit our website there will be contact for export sales they can provide you with a price on a trailer, we do have some equipment in the USA currently closes dealer would be in Canada currently. The answer to your question we use 2 channel sections on the drawbar as this is a stock material we carry it gives the same strength as box section, even with the labour and welding time it is more cost effective to manufacture the drawbars this way.
@gregj7916, thank you, yes a sales pitch but more a video to show the process and check we do to ensure the best results each time a machine leaves the factory.
Haven’t managed to watch yet but I’ve always wondered how the big artic trailers are made with a bow in them so that they take the weight better.. You see the bow when they’re empty. Just curious..
@deebo1812 some manufactures will pre stress the beam to allow for defection, when the trailer is fully loaded. Normally on over length trailers or heavy haulage trailers. Stay tuned as in the near future we will be doing the same style of video on our commercial trailer range.
Agreed for many things airbags and disk are better. But most buyers buy off if price point and drums are more than sufficient for 99.9% if applications. I’m from across the pond where tractors aren’t used as they are over there but airbags aren’t robust enough for the coalfields and mountains of heavy haul. 60 ton on 35ft trailer bouncing off-road and narrow back roads are the norm.
@mnblkjh6757 this style of trailer is for agricultural tractor tow based work we also manufacture commercial trailers for lorry tow, featuring Air Suspension or Mechanical Suspension with either Disc brakes or drums.
Impressive setup and quality trailers. Nice to see a boss that appears to know what he’s talking about in relation to how the trailers are made etc..
Thanks John.
Love these type of videos seeing top quality engineering at its best . Superb product ! 👍🏻
Thanks Dave, stay tuned for more content to come.

@sarahwinfiel3989 thank you the hydraulic systems on all machinery is getting for complicated as the years go on.
Great video. Confidence inspiring. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Will do!

Great suggestion!
Very well built
@hankclingingsmith8707 thank you
Serious machines
Would we be seeing one at gloagburn if nc could do you a deal?
😅 good idea Pete!
@Crawfordsfarm1 gives us a call, contact details on our website im sure we can build a trailer to your specification. www.nc-engineering.com
@@NCengineeringLtd sounds like Crawford might end up with a top notch low loader
Fantastic video clip 👌 👏

Some top quality engineering in these trailers 😊
Thanks Stephen!
Brilliant video
Thanks Danny
Quality is not coincidence. 👍💯
🙌🙌
Excellent sales pitch..

Blacksmith and engineer business owner here.
I’m very interested with what you turn out. 👍🏻
@stuart6973 thank you for the feedback lots more to come in the future.
I have seen one of your dumpers at an agri dealership close to my house (northern France) . Interesting
@siberg6257 yes France is a large market for NC with site dumpers Payen Rozary en Brie is our importer/distributor in France.
Best quality
We pride ourselves on high standards and high expectations.
Do you wet coat the paint or are they powder coated ?
@philipmanley7668 its wet coat 2 pak paint

Update to airbag suspension & disc brakes
Agreed for many things airbags and disk are better. But most buyers buy off if price point and drums are more than sufficient for 99.9% if applications.

😮😮
Trailers are definitely built way more heavy duty compared to the usa.....
We keep our standards high.
Big old bit of porosity there at 12.32
@ruairitrainor4013 well spotted we could get you a job in the quality department, sometimes its shows up with 1 pin hole after shot blasting.
You could sell snow to the Eskimo’s Rab 😂
@trevor_j_neville thanks for the vote of confidence in Robert im sure he will be pleased with that feedback
Nothing in America is built to this standard. Hop across the pond and set up business.
We can ship trailers to the US, it is not a problem.
Pencil lines left on the hardwood floor = flaw of Allah? 😂
That's a keen eye, we will fix that asap lol
