Tapped density tester for pharmaceutical powders
Ensure precise quality control in pharmaceuticals by accurately measuring the tapped density of powders, granules, and capsules, enabling consistent product formulations and optimal flow properties.
Measures Tapped Density of Powders and Granules
The TD1 Tapped Density Tester from SOTAX combines dual USP and Ph. Eur. testing methods in a compact unit designed for precise density measurements of powders and granules. Featuring a quick-change holder for various cylinder sizes, this tester supports a wide range of applications from pharmaceuticals to fine chemicals. Thanks to its SingleButton™ operation, integrating the TD1 into your lab or production line enhances workflow efficiency with minimal setup time. This bench-top device is ideal for R&D and quality control departments, offering built-in calculation capabilities for Compressibility Index and Hausner Ratio. Fully compliant with ASTM and ISO standards, it supports secure operations with password protection and offers integration with q-doc® data management for seamless batch reporting.
