In fast-moving manufacturing environments, getting it right the first time is critical, which is where First-pass yield (FPY) comes into play. It tells you how well your process is running, how reliable your product is, and how efficiently your line is…
How to Design a Flexible Leak Testing Process for Rapid Device Innovation
Innovation in medical device development is moving faster than ever. As timelines shorten and product iterations accelerate, quality processes must keep pace, especially when it comes to leak testing. Whether you’re launching a next-gen drug package or refining an existing assembly,…
Non-Destructive Leak Testing for Medical Devices: Myths, Methods, and Must-Haves
For manufacturers of sterile medical devices, leak testing plays a critical role in maintaining patient safety, meeting regulatory requirements, and delivering consistent product quality. But despite its importance, leak testing is often misunderstood, misapplied, or underestimated, especially when it comes to…
Why Micro-Leak Testing is Critical for EV Battery Modules and Sensor Systems
As electric vehicles (EVs) evolve, the pressure on manufacturers to ensure the performance and reliability of every sealed component continues to grow.
Vacuum Decay vs. Helium Leak Testing: Which Is Best for Your Pharma Packaging?
When it comes to packaging for pharmaceuticals and sterile injectables, leak testing is not optional. Whether you are producing parenteral vials, syringes, plasma bags or blister packs, a compromised seal can put patients at risk and result in product recalls, failed…
Optimize Your Helium Use with a Helium Recovery System (HRS)
Helium is a critical resource in many industries — from manufacturing and leak detection to aerospace and medical applications. However, it’s finite, expensive, and often underutilized. A Helium Recovery System (HRS) offers a practical way to address this challenge. These systems…
Why use Helium for leak detection?
Why use Helium for leak detection? Helium is one of the most effective gases used for leak detection, especially in industrial applications. This non-toxic gas has a small atomic size, allowing it to penetrate even the tiniest cracks or openings in…
