  • System and method for high voltage leak detection
    Patent number: 11592352
    Abstract: A leak detection system includes a testing interface, which includes a rotation holder configured to retain and rotate a package. The testing interface includes a plunger apparatus configured to actuate a plunger to apply a pressure to the package before and/or during the package being inspected using a high voltage leak detection (HVLD) apparatus. The testing interface also includes a controller configured to operate and coordinate the operation of the testing interface with operation of the HVLD apparatus.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 7, 2021
    Date of Patent: February 28, 2023
    Assignee: Packaging Technologies and Inspection, LLC
    Inventors: Ross Treloar, Andrew O'Sullivan, Heinz Wolf
  • System and method for grounded high voltage leak detection
    Patent number: 11397126
    Abstract: A leak detection system includes a high voltage leak detection (HVLD) testing system configured to inspect a package using a HVLD apparatus that includes an inspection electrode and a detection electrode. The leak detection system includes a grounding system that includes a grounding element. The grounding system is configured to remove, significantly reduce, or conduct away electric charge accumulation on the package. The leak detection system also includes a controller configured to operate and coordinate the operation of the grounding system with the operation of the HVLD testing system.
