Centrifugal Products History (1955-Today)
In 1955, Joy Manufacturing Co. consisted of only four engineers. Their office, located above a hardware store in Western New York, was the scene where they drafted designs of various types of turbo-machinery. In short time, the company purchased land in Cheektowaga, NY which became the site of their Research and Development facility. From 1955-1960, the four engineers designed, developed and experimented with gas turbines, steam turbines, axial flow compressors, in-line centrifugal compressors and integral gear centrifugal compressors.
After five years of experimentation, Joy Manufacturing Co. narrowed its focus on the design and manufacturing of an integral gear centrifugal compressor, and the MSG (multi-staged gear) models were introduced to the market. These models were primarily sold for plant air applications. Throughout the 1970’s, the company experienced a significant amount of growth domestically. During this time, Joy Manufacturing discovered a market niche and began to engineer custom compressors for refinery applications and the air separation industry.
The 1980’s signaled rapid changes and new development for Joy Manufacturing. These changes included the development and introduction of a low cost plant air compressor, the utilization of computer-based design software and a substantial manufacturing facility expansion.
In 1987, Joy Manufacturing Co. was acquired by Cooper Industries, and the Cooper Turbo-Compressor division was formed. This acquisition marked the end of the JOY name and kicked off an era of extensive new product development. As a result of substantial investments, new manufacturing tools were purchased, test facilities were enhanced, and computer equipment was upgraded. These improvements gave way to the creation of the TurboAir 2000 plant air compressor and new high-performance MSG compressors for the air separation industry.

I found two JOY compressors in an abandoned factory in Miami, Florida. I believe they date to 1962. Can you provide me with any information on them. Each compressor has two cylinders arranged in a linear manner.
