What does the future of manufacturing look like? It might look a lot like this group.

OTC was proud to partner with the Crawford Partnership to welcome local 10th-grade students to our Galion facility, giving them an opportunity to step inside a local business, explore career paths available right here in Crawford County, and see firsthand what today’s manufacturing and skilled careers actually look like.

During their tour, students got an up-close look at the capabilities that keep critical industries running—from precision rotating equipment repair and advanced testing to custom engineering, extensive product inventory and 24/7 field service. They also met some of the people behind that work and saw just how many different skills and career paths it takes to make it all happen.

Did we meet a future environmental engineer? Plant manager? Rotating equipment engineer? Field service technician?

We hope so—and we hope to see a few familiar faces walk back through our doors in a few years.

Thank you to the Crawford Partnership for connecting the next generation with opportunities right here in their own community.

When a compressed air system goes down, the cost doesn’t stop at the repair.

Equipment failure can trigger what we call the Reliability Loop: diagnosing the problem, sourcing and setting up rental equipment, completing repairs, and restarting production. The process can result in 70+ hours of lost output, adding significant unplanned downtime and expense.

With DIRECTAIR® and our FOURTH UTILITY compressed air service, manufacturers can eliminate the reliability loop with a 100% Uptime Guarantee and full maintenance and monitoring managed by our team.

An industrial compressed air system is more than just a compressor.

From intake and compression to cooling, drying, filtration, storage, and distribution, every stage plays a role in delivering clean, dry air at the right pressure to keep production moving.

But keeping every component properly sized, maintained, and optimized takes ongoing attention and expertise.

Learn how industrial compressed air systems work from intake to end use—and what it takes to keep them performing.

Silicon Valley's most advanced manufacturers rely on one critical utility behind the scenes: clean, dry, oil-free compressed air.

From semiconductor fabrication and microchip production to medical device manufacturing, even microscopic oil contamination can damage wafers, disrupt cleanroom environments, reduce yields, and lead to costly downtime. That's why ISO 8573-1 Class 0 oil-free air has become the standard for precision manufacturing.

DIRECTAIR® delivers reliable, oil-free compressed air solutions that help manufacturers protect product quality, improve energy efficiency, and keep mission-critical operations running without interruption.
