Why Bay Cast Is Different
Capabilities, Capacity, Size
Bay Cast is a fully integrated manufacturer with the capabilities and capacity to support large, complex projects from concept through completion. The company specializes in heavy-section steel castings from 10,000 to 75,000 pounds, large-format precision machining for components commonly measuring up to 10 feet by 10 feet and weighing 25,000–40,000 pounds, and custom-engineered base plates for demanding industrial applications. With in-house casting, machining, engineering, installation, and service support, Bay Cast delivers turn-key solutions for aerospace, defense, marine, energy, infrastructure, civil engineering, oil and gas, and general industrial customers. Bay Cast operates across three specialized facilities on one campus in Bay City, Michigan: a 93,000-square-foot foundry, a 94,000-square-foot finishing facility, and a 46,000-square-foot machine shop. This layout supports a streamlined progression from casting through finishing and precision machining.
Baseplates Built In The USA
Bay Cast Technologies manufactures industry-leading base plates, floor plates, and surface plates entirely in the United States. Unlike many competitors that rely on overseas production, Bay Cast offers fully domestic sourcing, engineering, manufacturing, installation, and service support. Every base plate is custom engineered to meet the specific requirements of the application, delivering superior precision, durability, and faster lead times. From automotive and defense testing environments to metrology, robotics, and industrial automation systems, Bay Cast provides cradle-to-grave support and virtually unlimited sizing capabilities for the most demanding projects.
