History

Air Logic Power Systems, LLC (ALPS) was originally founded in 1974 and produced its first leak testing machine in 1978.  The first high-speed rotary leak tester was introduced in 1985, leading to an extended period of growth and a move to the current manufacturing facility in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Beginning in the early 1990’s, ALPS focused on the plastic container inspection market and began production of the ALPS Smart Test Module (STM) electronic test circuit.  Since that time, the STM has been well proven with delivery of over 7,500 units to-date installed in various types of machines.

ALPS is now recognized as a market leader with an installed base of more than 1,400 machines including rotary, linear and integrated models.  ALPS is a supplier to ten of the top ten North American plastic bottle blow molders and the current population of machines is assuring the integrity of more than 40 billion containers per year. 

In the year 2000, ALPS became part of the TASI Group of companies and began a period of continued growth and new product development.  Introductions during this period have included:

• SS-100 indexing and RS-100 reciprocating linear leak testers, featuring ultra fast leak tests and guided setup principals

• Ongoing Rotary Leak Tester enhancements and adaptations to meet the increasing speed and inspection needs of the PET and polyolefin container markets

• The new LeakMonitor for Blow Molders to detect leakage inside high-speed PET bottle molding machines

ALPS is dedicated to providing the highest quality of equipment and service to assist our customers in efficient manufacture of the highest quality containers.
