Given the highly infectious nature of the COVID pathogen, tests for the virus had to be quick, reliable and safe. The test components and transfer devices had to be leak-proof—both to give accurate test results and to prevent infection of the clinicians performing the tests.
Leak testing is an essential part of the manufacturing process for a variety of products, and it is among the more time-consuming processes on an assembly line. New leak testing technologies are reducing cycle times and making the process more efficient.
This article is designed to assist people that test for leaks using air in industrial quality control and want to learn how they can determine a leak test specification beyond zero leaks.
Leak testing is an important quality control measure in manufacturing. This article provides guidance on determining leak testing specifications by exploring factors and modifying existing specifications or creating new ones.
Leak testing of EV battery cells and modules is vital for safety and defect prevention in North America's growing mobility industry. Early detection of leaks, especially during module assembly, saves time and money while ensuring quality control.
