On the bi-annual R.A.I.-exhibition in Amsterdam, Beers presented the “Beers’ Floating Tractor” for both
rigid-trailer and tractor-trailer. Based on a Diamond T-chassis (with better suspension) and a Chenard-
chassis (think of FAR-trailer-coupling) with an overall shortened wheel-base. Ten Cate (with which Beers
had a longtime co-operation for trailers and axle-systems) offered the trailer and the tractor was powered
by a Kromhout-Diesel.
The garbage-truck (marque Diamond-T) mind Beers’-emblem had a beam-winch-combination so no hydraulics
applied. Again, Beers had quite some engineering in-house with a strong network of proven suppliers.
