AML Instruments, a family-owned calibration and instrumentation company, was founded by brothers Alex and David Leeson. Since acquiring Hanatek's calibration business in 2012, AML has evolved into a significant player in the U.K. and international markets for instrumentation and calibration services.
Alex Leeson, with over two decades of experience in metrology and calibration, first honed his skills in aerospace before specializing in the paper, packaging, and plastics industries.

They represent leading brands like Technidyne, RollTest, AcquiData, Oakland Instruments, and Techlab Systems, expanding their offerings in testing equipment and laboratory automation software. AML's growth trajectory has been marked by continuous expansion, both in terms of facilities and capabilities.
