Nick Dinsdale, managing director at NCD Equipment added, “We are proud to be able to show the MWR on our stand as it offers a different proposition to any other machine. Traditionally we use tracked excavators to demonstrate our products, but due to the MWR’s versatile nature we are able to do this on a wheeled machine, further highlighting how our attachments work across different types of excavator. This also provides us with the opportunity to highlight how our attachments can be used in a huge variety of different environments, where wheeled machines are better suited.”
