Friability Test Apparatus

Description

Used to determine the durability and abrasiveness of tablets. A transparent perspex drum (made of important Perspex sheet 6.4 mm thick) 300 mm Diax35mm deep and white cover disc and nut, also a shaped radial fixed blade which Carrier the tablets along with it up to the central height and lets them off while the Drum is rotating. Thus the tablets rub against each other without any hard impact. The drum rotates at the fixed speed of 30 R.P.M. by a geared motor and the rotation period is controlled by a timer (imported time switch duration 1 to 15 minutes) per Determined end present. The motor unit is housed in a shaped steel cabinet with a shaft extended on one side upon which the drum rotates. Switches with neon indicators and time switch are fitted on a panel and provided work on 220 volts 50 C/S A.C.

DIGITAL FRIABILITY TEST APPARATUS

Description

Digital Friability Test Apparatus is a precision instrument suitable for measuring the obsession strength of tablets. The unit is equipped with two transparent acrylic drums which rotate at a speed of 25 ± 1 RPM. Each of the two acrylic drums is provided with an arm that carries the tablets along with it up to a predetermined height and allows them to fall from that specified height, while the drums are rotating, It is fitted with a digital revolution counter showing the current number of revolutions for the test. A thumbwheel switch is used to set the desired number of rotations. Provision is made to remove the lid of the acrylic drum by unscrewing just one knob. This is available in 1 drum and 2 drum assemblies.
