Maybe for their higher end items but stuff like this all come from the same factory.

They've been around since the early 80's. I know because I bought a 6" joiner from them back in 1984, freight shipped to my house. Apparently it was made in Taiwan, and copied from a Powermatic model 60 joiner. I had to do a fair amount of work "re-machining" mounting spots for the cutterhead in order to get it level across the beds. Fortunately the gibs were in good shape, and beds were parallel.
One other customer at the time suspected cast iron castings were made from molds from Powermatic original parts, without factoring in the shrinkage after cooling. I suspect they've improved production techniques a lot in the last 30 years!

As has been said, they're a mid tier tool company. A nice step above Wen and Ryobi, and on par with Jet, Delta, Rikon, etc.
Most of their machines are nearly the same as their Jet/Delta/Rikon counterparts (and sometimes made in the same facilities), but they have two things that really set them apart in my opinion.
#1. You can buy replacement parts directly from Grizzly for nearly all of their machines! That can really be a godsend.
#2. They write their instruction manuals in the U.S.A. for the more complex machines (like a mill for example), it can be absolutely game changing.

Link for the t track?
I have a dual drum drum sander I bought off facebook and I have bought several replacement parts directly from them which is great.
Yeah, I don't know a single carpenter that doesn't have at least 1 grizzly tool in their shop. They aren't YouTubers, and none of them have a podcast, but most of them work on Lakefront mansions in and around Chicago, so they must know something.
