CHT-01 Capsule and Softgel Hardness Tester

Softgel Capsule Hardness Tester Application

A softgel is a specialized capsule used for oral medication, containing a liquid fill within a gelatin shell. It is commonly used for vitamins, minerals, and other drugs. The active ingredients are safely enclosed within the capsule, protecting them from the environment. When the consumer takes the capsule, the ingredients are released through crush, dissolution, melting, depending on the capsule wall’s strength.

The CHT-01 Capsule and Softgel Hardness Tester quantifies the softgel’s elasticity by measuring wall deformation under a specific compressive load. Seal strength is evaluated using a probe larger than the capsule, measuring the force required to break the seal. Additionally, the tester measures the force needed to deform the softgel to a specific level.

Benefits of Softgel Capsule Hardness Tester

  1. Multi Test programs realize comprehensive analysis of capsule in force, displacement and fixed load tetss
  2. Automatic Rotating softgel capsule sample table increases test efficiency
  3. Automatic statics saves operator’s valuable data dealing time
  4. Long and durable service life with its industrial level design and componets
  5. More extended applications avaiable for other types of samples and industries. For example, it can be seamliess switched to tablet hardness test and gelatin test; compression and hardness tests for laundry detergent pacs;paintball compression test; tests for play dough;physical analysis of cosmetic product such as lipstick, cream, lotion, toothpaste, etc. 

Technical Features

  1. PLC control unit equipped and 7-inch HMI touch screen
  2. Precision ball screw and stepper motor used
  3. Variable test speed.
  4. Multiple fixtures customization available
  5. Position restrictor and overload protections
  6. Automatic returning function after test
  7. Dot matrix type microprinter

 

High Efficiency

The high efficiency feature of CHT-01 Capsule and Softgel Hardness Tester can not be overphasized. 

High efficiency softgel hardness test sample plate, to hold tens softgel samples in one test.

The probe compresses each softgel with the rotation of sample table without human interfere. After all softgels are compressed, the system gives statistic results directly. One time sample placing of ten samples saves labor and waiting time too.

Normy

The Softgel Capsule Hardness Tester complies with multi ASTM and ISO standards regarding the compression and hardness test of materials. The tester features a rotating sample feeding mechanism to realize ten sample readiness. 

Q&A

Cieľom testovania stlačenia softgélov je vyhodnotiť pevnosť softgélov v tlaku pri pôsobení vonkajších síl, čím sa zabezpečí ich stabilita a bezpečnosť počas skutočného používania.

Tester tvrdosti kapsúl a softigélov je špecializované zariadenie, ktoré sa používa na testovanie pevnosti v tlaku softigélov simuláciou tlakov, s ktorými sa môžu stretnúť počas skutočného používania.

Softgély môžu byť počas výroby, balenia a prepravy vystavené vonkajším tlakom. Testovanie stlačením zabezpečuje, že sa ľahko neroztrhnú alebo nedeformujú, čím sa zachová účinnosť uvoľňovania a absorpcie liečiva.

Pri výbere správneho testera tvrdosti kapsúl a softgélov je potrebné zvážiť faktory, ako je presnosť, stabilita, spoľahlivosť a jednoduchá obsluha, aby sa zabezpečilo presné posúdenie pevnosti softgélov v tlaku. Pre profesionálov je Cell Instruments CHT-01 jednoznačnou voľbou.
