Several methods for measuring tablet hardness
Sep 27, 2024

Tablet hardness tester is an experimental instrument used to measure tablet hardness. It is used to measure tablet hardness and diameter. It is widely used in pharmaceutical factories, medicine testing institutes and related scientific research units.

There are several methods for measuring tablet hardness:

1. According to the definition of relevant disciplines, hardness refers to surface hardness, which is generally measured by the "indentation" method, that is, using a hard cone to "indent" the surface of the material with a certain force, and the surface hardness of the material is evaluated by the size and depth of the indentation. This method can also be used to measure the hardness of the tablet surface, reflect the tablet's ability to resist wear, and can measure the pressure distribution, etc.

2. Crushing strength refers to placing the tablet between two pressing plates, applying pressure along the diameter of the tablet, and measuring the pressure required to break it, which is its crushing strength.

3. The pharmaceutical tablet hardness tester can obtain the hardness, diameter (length), thickness and weight of the sample in one measurement. High-precision load sensor ensures measurement accuracy.

Tablet hardness testing machine is an essential tool for tablet hardness testing. In addition to ensuring disintegration time, weight difference, dissolution or release, and content uniformity, tablets should also have appropriate hardness to ensure complete molding, meet the requirements of tablet appearance, and not be brittle.
