Sotax's tablet testers developed for tablet physical testing ranging from: tablet disintegration, tablet hardness, tap density, friability, and powder flowability.

Tablet Tester Systems

A leader in the development and manufacturing of test instruments and software for tablet testing, Sotax's tablet testers started over 30 years ago with the galenical products for disintegration testing. Today, Sotax has an an excellent international reputation as a specialist in the development and production of sophisticated tabet testing equipment and automated systems.

The Disintegration Tablet Tester, DT3, is used in some pharmaceutical labs and has been one of the most reliable manual disintegration testers due to its simplicity of use and its flexibility to allow Manual Disintegration and Automated Disintegration on the same instrument on 3 or 6 tubes' baskets.

The Hardness Tablet Testers, the HT series, have been designed to solve the common problems inherent to classical Hardness Testers. Allowing Hardness and Weight, Diameter, Length, Thickness measurements the HT instruments are faster, safer, more accurate, can adapt their measurement mode to make inter-instrument comparison and have been designed with the unique patented Auto Alignment™ system for oblong shaped tablets.

The Tap Density Tester, TD1, is the most flexible tap density tester for EP, ASTM, USP 1 and USP 2 Tests. The powder flow testing instrument, FT 300, determine the flowability characteristics of blends, powders and granulates simulating processing conditions.

The Tablet Friability Tester offers either a single or dual drum, USP specified 10 degree tilt and a unique front loading with automated discharge and print-out.

The Powder Flowability Tester was developed by industry to provide a way of determining flow problems with blends during the manufacturing process.
