Case studies

Fabrum Solutions

Fabrum cryocooler

Business opportunity
Our high temperature superconductor programme identified a technology gap for industrialised medium-power cryocoolers, which presented an opportunity for New Zealand company Fabrum Solutions.

What we did
Developed an innovative cryogenic refrigeration unit, integrated into liquefaction plants, proved it in the field and transferred intellectual property, design and manufacturing process to Fabrum Solutions.

Result
Fabrum Solutions now has a growing export business in cryogenic liquefaction plants.

Oceanmax

Oceanmax

Business opportunity
Oceanmax needed to quantify the performance benefits of its hydrophobic coating.

What we did
Developed a method to analyse and validate performance of the coating.

Result
Having high-calibre research findings opened up new business opportunities for Oceanmax.
