30 Year Celebration

BCS Machine Company, Inc. closed in May 2026 after celebrating a 30 Year milestone. Established in 1996, BCS Machine Company, Inc. provided high quality tooling, machining, and manufacturing services to the orthopedic medical device community. BCS was a precision machining center with a solid reputation for exacting quality and a proven track record for the timely delivery of state-of-the-art instruments and precision machined implant devices to orthopedic medical companies. BCS' exclusive focus was for the manufacturing of Class I and Class II medical devices. BCS possessed a comprehensive understanding of the quality, engineering, production and delivery requirements that surrounded orthopedic products.

Mission StatementThe BCS Machine Company, Inc. mission was to provide the highest quality advanced medical machining services available. With over 30 years experience with manufacturing advanced medical and precision components for the medical community, BCS provided unparalleled excellence in advanced medical manufacturing and design consultation services.

Quality PolicyThe BCS Machine Company, Inc. mission was to provide the highest quality advanced medical machining services available. With over 30 years experience with manufacturing advanced medical and precision components for the medical community, BCS provided unparalleled excellence in advanced medical manufacturing and design consultation services. BCS was committed to complying with the requirements and to maintain the effectiveness of its quality management system, to maintain ISO 13485 certification, and FDA registration.

The Quality Management System at BCS Machine was certified to the ISO 13485:2016 standard by Amtivo (USA) Inc. In addition, it was an FDA registered facility that BCS followed the requirements set forth by the FDA's Quality System Regulation CFR 820 Title 21. BCS believed that any effective quality program must be completely incorporated into the business program; they are not mutually exclusive. This philosophy ensured quality involvement in all areas and disciplines from contract review through final shipment. Establishing our Quality Management System for ISO and FDA compliance required that BCS' quality management aspects be controlled and documented in all areas including process and quality planning, materials acquisition and control, special process requirements such as plating, first article acceptance and production/assembly operations, and through to final acceptance and shipping. Evidence of this can be found at all stages.

In-depth product design consultation skills provided value-added services by offering continuous design review and consultation throughout the instrument/device development lifecycle; thereby increasing customer and instrument/device value through cost effective, quality-based efficient manufacturing processes. In support of these services, BCS maintained an advanced information technology environment, including a state-of-the-art virtualized server infrastructure supporting a multi-user CAD/CAM programming environment that was capable of 2 and 3D contouring, 3D surfacing, and solid modeling techniques. BCS supported an open, standardized approach to interfacing with customer designs using software methods that support IGES, DXF, and PDES/STEP standards for applications such as MasterCAM, Solid Works, Pro-E, and Siemens PLM Software NX.

Prototypes and production processes used state-of-the-art high-speed CNC horizontal and vertical machining centers, EDM Wire, and CNC turning centers supported by secondary in-house operations such as laser engraving, TIG welding, hand finishing and passivation. Greatly successful multi-component, micro instrument, and implant assemblies were closely linked to the rapid developmental processing abilities with alpha, clinical, or pilot stage programs that produced economical advantages through iterative improvements and adjustments. On the shop floor, skilled machinist consistently held tolerances to .0001” on a wide range of medical grade materials including: aluminum, cobalt chrome, stainless steel, titanium, and plastics.

Total team commitment and unyielding manufacturing processes eliminated valuable time loss, equating to rapid customer response. With over a century of combined experience within the medical OEMs, contract medical manufacturing and aerospace arenas, the BCS team understood the demands and dynamics that was associated with tight tolerance prototypes and production programs for the processing of hip, knee, shoulder, and spine systems.

Product Line In addition to contract manufacturing, BCS staff developed a Quick Connect SystemAssorted Quick Connect System (QCS) Components (QCS) consisting of chucks, handles, cannulated and non-cannulated drills, taps, drill guide tubes, punches and Trocar/Bayonet point pins. This widely popular system is currently still in use throughout the world and offers the surgeon and OR team critical time savings and ease of operation. The QCS system is an implementation of the recently awarded US Patent #7942253 co-developed by a BCS Machine Company principal.

Location - Conveniently located within the Baltimore/Washington corridor of suburban Maryland; BCS Machine Company was an operations partner for your confidential manufacturing requirements.


Facilities

BCS maintained a FDA registered manufacturing facility that included: a modern CNC infrastructure, an ISO 13485 registered Quality Management System, proactive engineering support services, and an advanced virtualized computer aided design and manufacturing system. BCS had several decades of experience in manufacturing and design consultation with Class I and Class II devices for medical device OEMs and Hospital research and development organizations.

Services

BCS provided a comprehensive package of manufacturing services for the medical community that was primarily focused on orthopedic devices. Our direct manufacturing, machining and assembly of orthopedic implants and instrumentation for total reconstructive systems was only a portion of what was provided. Additionally, many value-added customer support services were provided throughout the product development life-cycle, including: machining, prototyping, and design consultation.
