Physical Testing
Solutions to test the physical properties of , and other solid . With a proven track record of more than 25'000 testers in the market, SOTAX and are known for their reliability, precision and ease of operation. Robust devices for and for determining powder & granulate characteristics complete the range of solid dosage testers. All instruments can be operated stand-alone and are ready for seamless integration with powerful for consolidated batch reporting in full compliance with 21 CFR part 11 requirements.
Hardness
Hardness
Differently automated multi-parameter - from simple to automatic testing systems measuring 5 physical parameters (weight, thickness, width, diameter/length, hardness) of solid dosage forms. Fully compliant with international Pharmacopeia, SOTAX excel with exceptional robustness, precision, and user-friendliness.
Disintegration
Disintegration
Modular to accurately determine disintegration times of tablets and capsules. Automated ensures maximum repeatability and provides results you can rely on. Available with 1-2 independent stations and automated re-test procedures according to international Pharmacopeia when operated with software.
Friability
Friability
Robust and easy-to-use for testing the friability & abrasion of tablets according to USP <1216>, Ph. Eur. 2.9.7 and other harmonized Pharmacopeia. Available with single or dual drums, SOTAX can be integrated with standard laboratory balances and for protocolling each step of the menu-guided test procedure according to FDA data integrity guidelines.
Weight
Weight
Efficient and reliable online tablet tester for testing the weight of tablets. Weighing is incorporated into different types of testing methods according to International Pharmacopoeia. Additionally, chapters like USP <41> and USP <1251> provide guidelines for weighing equipment used and state that the type and frequency of balance checks should be determined by the risk and process tolerance. Various tablet presses can be seamlessly integrated with the WT50. It is compatible with both single-sided and double-sided tablet presses.
Tapped Density
Tapped Density
The TD1 combines two different testing methods with different stroke heights as described in USP <616>) and Ph. Eur. 2.9.34. Robust and compact in design, the tester is ideal to determine the in your in-process control (IPC) lab during manufacturing. Integrate with a standard balance and q-doc® data management software for advanced protocolling.
Flowability
Flowability
Modular to characterize the flow properties of powders and granulates as described in United States Pharmacopeia (USP <1174>) and European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur. 2.9.36). Perform with cylinder or funnel attachement to measure mass & volume over time - or determine compressability based on "" type of tests.
