LAFORGE, LLC is a leading engineering and manufacturing company specializing in innovative solutions across multiple industries, including agricultural technology, material handling, and custom fabrication. With a strong foundation in precision engineering, we are dedicated to delivering high-quality, reliable products that enhance efficiency, safety, and productivity. Our subsidiaries, including AFE Crane and BucketMaster, allow us to leverage shared expertise and resources to serve a diverse customer base.

Our history dates back to Bruns Machine, a full-service fabrication and machining business founded in 1963. In 2008, the company was acquired by a private firm based in France, operating under the name HDM, LLC. This acquisition supported the company’s expansion into the agricultural and industrial sectors. In 2024, a strategic restructuring consolidated Bruns Machine and HDM, LLC under the unified identity of LAFORGE, LLC, aligning our diverse businesses and strengthening our ability to provide innovative, high-quality solutions.

Today, LAFORGE, LLC continues to build on this legacy, driving forward with a commitment to engineering excellence, customer-focused solutions, and industry-leading innovation.
