Even construction expert Züblin swore by the Unimog U 411
The construction expert Züblin acquired an expertise that is still valid today at national and international construction sites. In the process, the construction company also used the Unimog U 411, which was primarily used as a workhorse for on-site load transport. The WIKING team developed according to an authentic model, because actually the 411 according to the WIKING documentation pulled concrete pipe parts to the place of application. The U 411 was originally designed by the Gebrüder Boehringer for agricultural multi-purpose use - compact is the original as well as the 87-fold reduction. At the DLG exhibition in Frankfurt in 1948, the role model, which later became a legend as a Unimog, celebrated its premiere. Back in March 1949, the Boehringer brothers mass-produced the agricultural and forestry tractor in Göppingen, before the production facility was relocated to the decades-long Unimog location in Gaggenau in 1951 and Daimler-Benz took over the direction of the type family.
