Friability Tester
Tablet Friability Testing for Reliable Quality Control
PIS Friability Tester is designed to determine the mechanical strength of tablets as per pharmacopoeial standards. The microprocessor controlled tester allows programming of specific time interval or set number of counts/rotations.
The display indicates either the elapsed time or the revolution count as per the selected method. The program also allows the weights to be entered for further calculations.
