Labmate Friability Tester operates with rotation speed of 25 RPM to evaluate tablet durability. They have an integrated digital timer for monitoring test duration with efficiency. Their abrasion-resistant drum is designed to handle repeated testing cycles without compromise. They offer simple interface for easy control of testing process. Our Friability Tester are essential for assessing mechanical strength and friability of pharmaceutical tablets in quality control.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 What is a Friability Tester?
A Friability Tester is an apparatus designed to assess the durability of tablets and granules under mechanical stress.
2 What Is the Difference Between a Friability Tester and a Hardness Tester?
Friability Tester tests the durability and mechanical strength of tablets whereas Hardness Tester measures the compressive strength of tablets.
3 Can Friability Tester be used to determine tablet shelf life?
It helps in predicting the performance of tablet during storage and transportation.
4 Can Friability Tester be used to detect tablet formulation issues?
It can identify issues such as wrong binder or insufficient compression force within tablet formulation that leads to fragile tablets.
5 Can Friability Tester be used for evaluating tablets in Different environments?
It can be used under various environmental conditions to simulate real-world stresses.
6 Can Friability Tester be used for testing tablets of different shapes?
It can be used for tablets of various shapes such as oval, capsule-shaped and round tablets.
7 How Does Moisture Content Affect Friability Tester result?
Tablets with high moisture content are prone to breaking or crumbling during testing thereby affecting Friability Tester results.
8 Can Friability Tester be used for tablets with different release profiles?
It can be used for tablets with different release profiles.
Understanding Friability Tester: Purpose, Process, and Benefits
Friability Tester is a laboratory instrument used to evaluate the tendency of uncoated tablets to chip, break, or powder under mechanical stress. It simulates the impact and abrasion tablets experience during handling and packaging. The results help determine if the tablets can survive real-world conditions without compromising quality.
Our Tester ensures tablets meet required limits for friability and Identifies weak formulations prone to crumbling. It features;
Precision Drum Rotation
Digital Timer and Counter
Stainless Steel Drums
Automatic Weight Loss Calculation
Dual Drum Models
Friability Tester is widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, where they help evaluate the mechanical strength of tablets before and after coating. It plays a vital role beyond just routine pharmaceutical QC. In nutraceutical manufacturing, they help assess the durability of herbal tablets, dietary supplements, and chewable that may be more fragile due to natural ingredients. The veterinary medicine sector also utilizes Friability Tester to ensure that animal health tablets can withstand transport and dosing conditions. In regulatory inspections and audits, documented friability test results are crucial to demonstrate compliance with pharmacopoeia standards like USP, EP, and IP. Export-focused pharma companies rely on friability data to meet the mechanical strength requirements of international markets. Additionally, compounding pharmacies and pilot-scale production units use our Friability Tester to validate the robustness of small-batch or custom formulations before scaling up.
