Tools & Engineering

McAllister Technical Services designs and manufactures specialized tools alongside offering fully bespoke engineering services tailored to the unique demands of ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and surface science research. With decades of hands-on experience, we support scientists and engineers by creating custom solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing equipment as well as our manipulators, chambers, probe stations, and other UHV systems.

Whether you need precision fixtures, specialized sample handling tools, custom flanges and adapters, or complete engineering support for complex vacuum setups, our team delivers reliable, high-quality results. We excel at turning challenging requirements into practical, high-performance hardware—always with an emphasis on vacuum compatibility, durability, and ease of use.

Our small, agile operation allows us to provide the personalized attention and rapid customization that larger manufacturers simply cannot match. From concept through fabrication and testing, we work directly with you to solve engineering problems and deliver tools that advance your experiments.
