Introduction to New HMK-1601 Tablet Friability Tester

Overview

HMK-1601 Tablet Friability Tester is used to determine the friability of compressed, uncoated tablets in pharmaceutcal industry. It tests resitance of uncoated tablets to the shock and abrasion happenned during manufacturing, packing, and shipping operations. During above opeatioins the uncoated tablets may be capped, chipped, abrasive or even broken. Measurement of tablet friability supplements other physical strength measurements such as tablet crushing strength.

It completely complies to internatioanl standard USP, E.P. and JP.

The friability test is carried out by using a drum in USP specified internal diameter and depth of transparent synthetic polymer with polished internal surfaces. The tablets are tumbled at each turn of the drum by a curved projection in USP specified inside radius that extends from the middle of the drum to the outer wall. The drum is attached to the horizontal axis of a device that rotates at USP specified rpm. Thus, at each turn the tablets roll or slide and fall onto the drum wall or onto each other, friable tablet (>1%) does not pass the test.
