At AMS, we don't just talk about accountability. We've built it into how we operate.
We run our business using The Great Game of Business (GGOB), an open-book management system that keeps our entire team aligned around performance, transparency, and continuous improvement.
What does that mean for our customers? Fewer surprises. More proactive communication. Tighter ex*****on. Projects delivered as promised, not "as close as we could."
When your automation partner runs on discipline, your projects feel less like a gamble and more like a plan.

Not all "leak-free" products are actually leak-free and that's by design.

In manufacturing, the goal isn't zero leakage. It's acceptable leakage under normal conditions. And the way you find out if a product passes? Leak testing.

One of the most common and reliable methods: pressure decay leak testing.

Here's the process in a nutshell:

→ Fill the sealed part with compressed gas

→ Isolate it from the supply

→ Monitor for pressure drop over a set dwell time

→ Convert that drop into a leakage rate , i.e pass or fail

It's fast, non-destructive, and fully automatable. Ideal for rigid parts under 3 cubic feet. Think electronic housings, fluid bags, and containers.

But it's not the right fit for every application. Vacuum decay, mass flow, and water bath methods each have their place depending on your product, volume, and sensitivity requirements.

We broke down how to choose in the blog post below. 👇

Is Pressure Decay Leak Testing the Right Choice? - AMS Automated Machine Systems Many products marketed as “leak free” may leak under certain conditions. Water bath and pressure decay leak testing are two ways to test.
