White Paper: Optimizing Quality And Increasing Production Throughput With Automated Tablet Testing
By Pharmatron
Automated pharmaceutical testing is a critical component of developing and deploying quality at its highest standard. Resulting in increased productivity, greater customer satisfaction and ease of regulatory compliance. Automation is having an ever important affect on the economy of pharmaceutical operations world wide. Fully automated tablet presses are now common with productivity measured in the millions of tablets per day per press outlet.
Measured parameters & corrective actions
Measuring the compression force for each punch has become a standard feature of modern tablet presses to take immediate corrective actions. Although the compression force allows drawing conclusions about product specifications such as weight, thickness and hardness of tablets, additional testing of each parameter is required to ensure the product characteristics are within the specified limits. It is important to understand, that even though all
three parameters are directly related, only their combined test results provide a basis for reliable quality control.
