Last week, our engineer Gav Blurton went to National Army Museum in Westminster to calibrate and service their display chamber humidity devices.

These were miniClima EBC constant humidity devices used to control the humidity within the displays. This prevents decay and helps keep the artifacts in tip-top condition.

Gav's visit coincided with "The Conflict in Europe" gallery, which explores the armyโ€™s role in maintaining the balance of power in Europe from the 1700s to the present day, as well as how war on the Continent has affected the British Isles.

Thanks to Gavin for these great pics and to the National Army Museum for trusting our expert team with the complexities of calibration.

If you've got some time to kill later this week, Gav highly recommends taking a trip to view the gallery, which includes a skeleton of Napolean's horse!

Not long now until the Instrumentation, Analysis, and Testing Exhibition 2026. Youโ€™ll be able to catch the AML Instruments Ltd team at Table 15 in Hall 5, where weโ€™ll be happy to talk to you about all things materials testing.

But if you havenโ€™t heard of us, hereโ€™s a starter for ten to give you a glimpse into our history, services, and workforce.

โœ… Provide on-site and off-site calibration services across a wide range of calibration disciplines for all industries, including dimensional, electrical, force, torque, and viscosity.

โœ… UKAS accredited for temperature calibrations, and weighing scales and balances calibrations (weโ€™re hoping to add electrical to this list in the not-too-distant future).

โœ… Centrally based in a modern, eco-friendly office, just north of the cathedral city of Lincoln, complete with our own in-house, fully equipped laboratory.

โœ… Tailored turnaround on off-site calibrations to suit your individual needs: calibrate while you wait, 24 and 48 hour express services, or 5 days as standard.

๐Ÿ“… Tuesday 12 May 2026
๐Ÿ“ Silverstone Race Circuit

This well-established industry event brings together engineers, researchers, and technology providers focused on testing, measurement, and analysis.

At our stand, you can take a closer look at our tensile testers and talk to us in detail about your test instrument and calibration needs. If that wasn't enough, we'll also have support from the guys at Imetrum Ltd who will be demoing the UVX3D extensometer.

If you're planning to attend, weโ€™d love to see you there.

Fresh off the back of Gavin Blurton's arrival at the company, AML are delighted to announce that Sabann Allen has joined our ever-growing onsite team as a Calibration Engineer.

Sabann began his engineering career after completing a Level Three NVQ, progressing through a three-year apprenticeship while working within industry. Here, he developed experience across several calibration disciplines, including: Dimensional, Temperature, Electrical, Torque, and Force.

As his experience developed, Sabann took on additional responsibility, including helping maintain UKAS accreditation within the dimensional department by becoming a UKAS authorised signatory. Alongside his technical role, he also gained experience supporting the commercial side of the business, contributing to sales activity and customer engagement.

Outside of work, Sabann enjoys an active, outdoor lifestyle. His interests include hiking, training, and running. Heโ€™s also a keen listener of audiobooks, valuing continuous learning both professionally and personally.

Welcome to the AML team Sabann! ๐Ÿค

Absolutely delighted to officially welcome Gavin Blurton to the AML Army.

'Gav' joined us a few months back from CoMech Metrology and brings a wealth of experience. He's hit the ground running, travelling up and down the country carrying out a variety of calibration work for our customers, including dimensional, electrical, and pressure.

With the addition of Gavin to the team, AML is poised to enhance its onsite calibration capabilities and further expand its market presence.

Away from all-things calibration, you'll probably find Gavin on an activity weekend with his partner and kids, or having a game of snooker or pool. I've not asked Gav if he's made a 147 yet, but just like calibration, snooker is all about extreme precision.๐ŸŽฑ

Welcome to the team Gav!

In September 2025, AML Instruments supplied and helped set up a Vector U200 Uniaxial Non-Contact Extensometer (manufactured by Imetrum Ltd) to the Williams Research Group based at University of Oxford.

Itโ€™s already proven helpful for some of their projects and materials, with our engineers on hand to support the team with ongoing training to ensure safe and efficient operation of the instrument.

They have some big projects pencilled in for the coming months, which will require heavy usage of the Vector, so we look forward to finding out more about the application types itโ€™s involved in and how it helps optimise their test processes.

Huge thanks to Dr Gemma Fereday-Trott and the Williams Research Group team for trusting us to find the right solution for their testing needs and we look forward to continuing our partnership in 2026.

Just before Christmas, our Senior Leadership Team took a trip down the road to Uncle Henryโ€™s for a fun, insightful, and fascinating workshop on the four Colour Energies.

Expertly delivered by David Williams from 3W Growth Ltd, it was hugely beneficial to learn how individual team members get their energy from different places correlating with their profiles.

The colour energies are the essential building blocks of team and personal effectiveness, helping improve communication, engage employees, and developing vital self-awareness of how our behaviour may be affecting those around us that are different to us.

If you take a look at the whiteboard images below, each colour profile was given the task of planning a team-building event, and true to the profiles, each group lived up to their respective way of thinking (scary eh!)

Going forward, weโ€™re going to be using this powerful tool to transform our team dynamics by building positive, productive relationships at AML HQ.

Thanks again to David for the fantastic workshop.

Ever wondered which colour energy you are?

AML Instruments Ltd are pleased to now offer our local collection and drop-off calibration service to businesses within a 40-mile radius of our calibration laboratory (postcode LN1 2WE).

This expanded catchment area (see map at the bottom of this post) now allows us to calibrate test instruments for businesses in several large cities, namely Hull, Nottingham, and Sheffield.

This expanded catchment area is designed to strengthen our market presence and provide more customers with an accessible, convenient, and top-class calibration service. Weโ€™re hopeful this will lead to new partnerships and even future price reductions for what is in most cases already a cost-effective service.

As always, each service request is assessed individually to ensure it remains cost-effective for both the client and AML. Weโ€™re also happy to consider requests slightly outside the catchment area, especially when larger quantities of test equipment is involved.

To take advantage of AMLโ€™s calibration collection and delivery service, contact a member of our friendly team for a quote.
