Leaders in Expertise

Before World War I, George L. Hunt invented and marketed many of the early tools for the maintenance and repair field. As the need for better methods of wheel alignment became necessary, the George L. Hunt Company developed “on vehicle” wheel alignment and correction tools.

By early 1920, the first Frame Correction Machine was designed and built. In 1927, Hunt’s company was renamed Bee Line Company, with integration following in 1979 as a McLaughlin Company, thus continuing the tradition of product quality and customer service.

The introduction of superior Bee Line systems for wheel alignment and truck frame straightening led to world leadership in the commercial vehicle maintenance markets. Our equipment has enabled millions of trucks and trailers to return to the highway as safe, efficient and productive vehicles.

Today, we apply the technology and expertise gained in the commercial vehicle industry to offer a full range of products that service commercial vehicles in over-the-road, off-road, military and specialty applications. By answering the needs of a changing industry for nearly one century, we will continue to be the leader of the complete alignment market and the company setting the trends in the future.
