Dr Schleuniger Pharmatron
Manual Hardness Testers
Manual tablet testing systems for fast, accurate and trouble-free measurement of all tablet shapes and sizes. Different models and versions for individual testing requirements with up to 5 essential physical parameters (weight, thickness, width, diameter/length and hardness) available. Fully USP and EP compliant design, high precision measuring with S-beam load cell technology and integrated reporting functions have made Dr. Schleuniger Pharmatron testers the preferred choice of leading pharmaceutical companies.
8M-BASIC - Tablet hardness tester
The 8M-BASIC break force tester is the ideal choice for simple hardness tests of tablets and other solid dosage form without programming any product limits. It's proven design and solid mechanical construction guarantees maximum repeatability and reliable breaking force test results. Test objects are being placed in the instrument by hand. On completion of a test, reports including statistical analysis can be automatically printed.
