Multi-parameter tablet hardness tester for laboratories
In pharmaceutical manufacturing and quality control, ensuring the accurate measurement of various tablet parameters is critical. Measurement challenges include handling different tablet shapes, minimizing manual errors and achieving precise results in demanding environments like dusty compression rooms.

Automate physical testing of tablets
The AT50 by Sotax AG is designed for fast and reliable multi-parameter testing of tablets. It measures weight, thickness, width, length/diameter, and hardness. The bench-top unit handles multiple tablet shapes, including oblongs, ovals, and unconventional shapes, thanks to innovative tablet alignment technologies. It integrates robust Dr. Schleuniger® technology and features high-speed feeders and linear tracks for accurate sample placement. The system supports automated, unattended testing and meets 21 CFR part 11 data compliance standards. Suitable for use in both laboratory and in-process control, the AT50 can connect to a tablet press for automatic self-adjustment and continuous operation.
