Top 10 auto body frame machine brand and manufacturers

Auto body frame machine is straightening equipment that is designed specifically for repairing collision vehicles that have been deformed due to external impacts. They are mainly divided into three types: frame racks, auto repair benches and floor pulling system. Their key task is to restore the original shape of the vehicle body, while causing the metal material to restore its original crystal structure, so that the frame-type vehicle can be smoothly calibrated under the action of unidirectional tension.

For frame-type vehicles, body correction usually uses a single pulling force to achieve the purpose of leveling and correction. However, for integral bodies, due to the complex structure, multiple pulling points may be required to act simultaneously to ensure accurate correction effects.

When using the automobile frame straightener, professional fixtures are essential to prevent additional damage to the body structure during the correction process. At the same time, the operator must follow a set of standardized correction procedures to ensure safety and effectiveness. After the correction work is completed, whether the fixture is used or not, a final inspection is required. Vehicles that do not use fixtures need to be measured and compared with the body size manual to ensure that the correction has reached the expected standard. Vehicles repaired with fixtures only need to check the matching of the body control points and the fixtures.

One appropriate auto body frame machine is the key to ensure the quality of collision repair. In order for auto body collision repair center and workshop to select best auto body frame machine, here I listed top 10 auto body frame machine brands and manufacturers after strict market research and based on customer review.

5. Signature frame machine

Signature Hybrid Frame Machines were created with versatility and power at top of mind. They have 3 pivoting pulling towers at one end of the bed and 2 (or 3) movable towers that ride on a track around the other end. The pivoting towers provide strength, stability and repair width while the movable towers make 360-degree pulling access possible.

This combination gives auto body technicians 10-ton hydraulics at each tower plus 360-degree pulling access to the vehicle frame. That makes the Hybrid a great frame rack with less “dead zones”. The towers glide into position with smooth, one-handed motion around the track making tower group pulls easier than ever.
