FAQ's of Tablet Friability Apparatus:
Q: How is the Tablet Friability Apparatus operated?
A: The apparatus operates via a microprocessor controls using the front-panel digital display, allowing you to set test speed (fixed at 25 rpm) and timer. Simply load the tablets into the transparent acrylic drum, select the desired duration on the programmable timer, and begin the test. Drum removal is straightforward for cleaning or retrieving samples.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using this tablet friability tester?
A: Key benefits include precise, reproducible friability measurements, thanks to the microprocessor control and digital display. The corrosion-resistant, polished stainless steel body ensures longevity, while the compact, lightweight form factor makes it highly portable and suitable for laboratories with limited space.
Q: When should I use a tablet friability apparatus in the laboratory?
A: The apparatus is used during tablet quality testing phases to assess durability and resistance to mechanical stress. It is especially essential in pharmaceutical settings before batch release to ensure tablets meet required friability standards.
Q: Where can I use this friability tester?
A: Designed for laboratory use, this apparatus is suitable for research and development labs, quality control in pharmaceutical production facilities, and academic or contract testing environments. Its compact size makes it ideal for both large and small laboratories.
Q: What is the process for conducting a friability test on this device?
A: To run a test, place your tablets in the acrylic drum, set the programmable timer for your required duration, and start the apparatus. The drum rotates at 25 rpm for the programmed time, after which the apparatus stops automatically. Tablets are recovered and analyzed for weight loss or chipping as per standard protocols.
Q: How does the transparent acrylic drum enhance the testing experience?
A: The transparent drum allows for full visibility of tablets during testing, making it easy to monitor the process and observe any changes. This feature is valuable for ensuring real-time quality assessment and documentation.
