Pacton AXD – semi-trailers from Nieuw-Vennep in the Netherlands: the 216 to 330 versions, gross weights of 16 to 30 t, unladen weights of 4.09 to 7.08 t
Pacton builds semi-trailers for goods transport in Nieuw-Vennep, the Netherlands. This page gathers the AXD range, from the AXD 216 version to the heavy AXD 330. A semi-trailer of this type rests on the tractor unit via the fifth-wheel coupling and carries part of its weight through the towing vehicle.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 4,090 to 7,080 kg against gross weights from 16,000 to 30,000 kg. Lengths range from 8,990 to 9,490 mm, widths from 2,550 to 2,600 mm.
Semi-trailers of this weight class and length are a versatile tool in distribution and regional transport for general cargo, pallets and building materials; from Nieuw-Vennep, Pacton supplies hauliers in the Netherlands and abroad in Europe. Semi-trailers of this kind are often used in drop-and-swap operations, where a single tractor unit serves several semi-trailers over the course of a day.
When buying used, the fifth-wheel plate and kingpin for wear, axles, suspension and brakes, the frame for distortion and corrosion, and the condition of the deck and side boards all matter; a complete inspection history is especially important on older semi-trailers of this range. It is also worth checking lighting, electrical connectors and tyre tread depth. Spare parts run through the Dutch semi-trailer trade.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
