In 1986 a trip to J.I Case in Chicago exposed us to the marvels of computer aided design for the first time. State-of-the-art at that time was a computer filling a large room and costing more than half a million dollars! Today a laptop costing less than $2000 will do the same thing.
That year we also made many trups to Neuss in Germany during the final prototype testing and development stages of the hitch to fit the Magnum range of tractors. ARM supplied a few thousand hitches to the Neuss factory.
