Dedicated to Quality

Thurston Machine Co Ltd is your number one trusted solution provider and industry leader in all stages of a project. We provide a cohesive quality package through which our customers are assured we are providing them a superior product that meets all of their specifications and requirements. At Thurston Machine, all our skilled trades professionals are experts and certified in their field, and our customers can depend on us through all stages of quality testing. From Material Test Reports (MTR) through to final Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), we have a dedicated Quality Manager and Inspector. Our testing and inspection is backed by our in-house coordinate measuring machine (CMM) for meeting precise quality specifications using The Gage Max FaroArm portable CMM and FARO Vantage Laser Trackers.

As a Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) facility, Thurston Machine works with our customer’s engineers to ensure our products meet and exceed all quality standards. We strive to provide our clients with the utmost confidence in our work, choosing to sub-contract our Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) out to a third-party supplier. This guarantees our customer’s that their product is upheld to the highest standards by an additional source outside of our facility.

All of our welders are certified by CWB and are highly skilled in the MIG (Metal Inert Gas), SAW (Submerged Arc Welding), TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) and stick electrode welding techniques.
