Hardness tester for the pharmaceutical industry TBH 325

The TBH 325 is the ERWEKA hardness or combination tester with integrated product memory for up to 50 products. Its robust design enables smooth operation in production environments. The numeric keypad with alphanumeric sub-function can be used to store the nominal hardness in combination with three tolerances for up to 50 products, which can then be recalled for testing. Alphanumeric information such as product names and remarks can be entered into the device by using the alphanumeric sub-function of the keypad, similar to writing a message on a mobile phone. In addition, the TBH 325 allows numeric or even alphanumeric entries of batch / lot numbers before the test run starts. The recorded information and test results can be documented in a variety of ways: The data can be printed out with a connected printer or transferred to a computer via the LAN interface. As the samples are manually inserted into the test station, all types and shapes of tablets can be tested. Broken samples can be removed from the test station into an acrylic glass disposal container. The TBH 325 measures the hardness of samples in a range of 10-500 Newton with two selectable measurement modes: ''Constant Speed'' or ''Constant Force''. Both the measuring sensitivity (3-40 N) and test speed (0.05-3 mm/sec. or 10-200 N/sec.) can be adjusted.The results are displayed and printed in either Newtons (N), Kiloponds (KP) or Strong Cobb (SC). The calibration of the hardness testing station is fully menu-driven and can be carried out using either weight stones or the electronic ERWEKA AutoCal 2.0 system.
