Glyne
Manufacturing has been serving original equipment manufacturers
as well as small machine shops since 1966. Founded by
Joe Takash, the McGalliard family purchased the
David McGalliard |
business
in 1980. David McGalliard brought the company decades
of experience in aircraft control linkage assemblies.
He used his degree in electrical engineering and masters
in business administration to help build Glyne into a
larger and more capable enterprise. His efforts gained
Glyne a host of new customers, many of whom remain loyal
to the firm.
Glyne is now in its second generation
of
management under Bruce McGalliard, who has continued the company’s
evolution and growth.In 1992, the company doubled its manufacturing space
to the current size of 12,000 square feet.
Protube, created under Bruce McGalliard
and Tom Frei, is a separate 10,000 square foot facility
that does tube butting (see Processes
& Solutions). These tubes
are used primarily in the construction of light
weight bicycle frames. |
