Since 2005, GLC has been an integral and seamless extension of our customers’ machining, turning, milling, and robotic welding operations. With unmatched quality and competitive pricing, we boost bottom line returns and increase productivity across the enterprise.
We handle the most complex product specifications to meet the highest consumer expectations – a true partner in success. Precision and value are the heartbeat of GLC.
A strong and experienced team of machinists and problem-solvers use state-of-the-art CNC milling and turning centers to machine build-to-print products from all metals and routinely hold half-a-thousandth tolerances. In-house robotic welding and strong supply chain partners in heat treatment and plating increases value-add service. GLC serves numerous commercial and government customers and operates as an AS9100D and ISO9001-2015 certified company with mature manufacturing and business processes. Customer service is in our DNA. In 2022, the GLC team proudly machined a satellite chassis that was launched aboard SLS Artemis 1 mission and deployed to the moon.
GLC has one vision: to be the premier job and machine shop in the nation. We proudly serve customers across the private sector and government agencies. As of November, 2017, GLC’s Quality Management System is officially certified by Eagle Registrations Inc. to conform to AS9100D including ISO 9001:2015 Standards.
GLC offers high-quality products and processes to solve our customers’ most difficult problems. Through our commitment to excellence, capability, responsibility, and partnership, we exceed our customers’ expectations every day.
At GLC Industries, we understand that your machining needs won’t always fit into the typical machining shop’s comfort zone. Through experience with fixtures, jigs, prototypes, preproduction, and production run machining, our capabilities far surpass the industry standard. With technical expertise to expand as our customers’ needs change, we can remain a constant partner, growing alongside you as your business needs expand.
GLC Industries has successfully incorporated robotic welding into many of our processes. Our manufacturing capabilities include an OTC 2 station, 7 axis digitally controlled Metal Inert Gas (MIG) weld robotic cell. This weld cell gives GLC the ability to manufacture a wide range of components in medium to high volumes, while repeating close tolerances part after part. Our versatility and quality precision allow us to consistently exceed customer expectations.
GLC provides GMAW (MIG Welding), GTAW (TIG Welding), and FCAW (Arc Welding) processes in low to medium volumes with capabilities in ferrous and non-ferrous material up to 1″ meeting AWS standards. These processes are achieved in an environmentally controlled booth.
October 19, 2023: After a thorough audit process with Eagle Registrations Inc., GLC’s Quality Management System remains certified for AS9100D including ISO 9001:2015 Certification.
The formal certificate of Registration states “this assessment was performed in accordance with the requirements of AS9104/1:2012 EAGLE registrations.” The scope of this registration includes Aerospace Machining & Turning, Robotic Welding, and Manufacturing.
The GLC team is very proud of this achievement and looks forward to contributing this level of quality management standards to all existing projects and toward future success for our valued customers!
