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.
Precision stainless canisters that helped make home liquid oxygen systems affordable.

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
- Machined the stainless-steel canister components (not the regulator or the full system)
- Scaled from early runs into steady production as the customer grew
- Managed outside services through our quality system
The result
Thousands of canisters over roughly a decade of production, and one of the programs that pushed the shop into CNC machining and a formal quality system in the 1980s.
What this means for your part.
Cost is a spec, too
Clean, repeatable stainless work at a price that let the whole system reach more patients.
Scaled with the customer
From early runs to steady production as their business grew.
Outside services, one owner
Finishing and processing managed through our quality system.
