Stainless canisters for affordable liquid oxygen
In the 1980s, we became a contract manufacturer for a company making affordable liquid oxygen systems. We built the stainless-steel, thermos-style canisters at the heart of them.

The challenge
Liquid oxygen systems need vessels that are clean, precise, and repeatable, at a price that makes the whole system affordable.
What we did
- 01Machined the stainless-steel canister components (not the regulator or the full system)
- 02Scaled from early runs into steady production as the customer grew
- 03Managed outside services through our quality system
The result
[ How many canisters, over how many years, and what it meant for the shop ]
