CONWAY, Ark. \u2013 Oct. 20, 2025 \u2013 <\/strong>John Bean\u00ae<\/sup> is celebrating 100 years of innovation, and to mark this major milestone, a commemorative logo, video and website have been developed to highlight a century of excellence.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn Bean\u00a0sparked a revolution in 1925 with the invention of the world\u2019s first wheel aligner, creating an entirely new category of precision equipment for automotive repair facilities,\u201d said Mariana Montovaneli, director of marketing for John Bean<\/em>. \u201cThat bold innovation launched a 100-year legacy of building innovative products that have continually evolved with the demands of repair professionals across the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n

The John Bean<\/em> 100th<\/sup> anniversary website<\/a> features a comprehensive overview of the storied brand, highlighting milestones in the company\u2019s illustrious history from its origins as a spray pump manufacturer. Included are historical photos that showcase innovative John Bean<\/em> products throughout the years on the road to becoming a global leader in technologically advanced wheel alignment systems, wheel balancers, tire changers, lifts and award-winning advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) calibration tools.<\/p>\n

The website also features a special video celebrating 100 years of wheel alignment innovation. The video is also available on the John Bean<\/em> YouTube<\/a> channel.<\/p>\n

\u201cBack in 1925, John Bean noticed that the long wheelbases of vehicles required more precise alignment than traditional methods, such as strings and tape measures, could offer,\u201d continued Montovaneli. \u201cThis led him to invent the first mechanical wheel aligner, which measured camber, toe and caster by physically contacting the wheels\u2014establishing the foundation for the John Bean alignment system. That legacy continues to shape modern technology today with some of the most advanced automotive undercar service solutions available.\u201d<\/p>\n
