Suppository hardness tester
Ensure consistent suppository quality by accurately measuring the force required for collapse, providing critical insights for product formulation and stability testing.

Measures Suppository Hardness Accurately
The SBT 2 Suppository Hardness Tester from ERWEKA GmbH is a precision instrument designed for pharmaceutical manufacturers and quality control laboratories. This bench-top machine features an electrically heated chamber with interchangeable inserts to accommodate diverse suppository sizes. It assesses mechanical strength by incrementally applying weights until collapse, offering critical insights into formulation consistency. This allows precise quality control for products such as analgesics and antifungal suppositories. Despite its manual operation, the device integrates seamlessly into R&D and QC setups, providing reliable performance across various pharmaceutical and biotech applications. Optional customization ensures compatibility with specific testing protocols and regulatory compliance.
