Laboratory & Quality Control Equipment & Tablet Section

Tablet Disintegration Testers new TD series represents the very latest in tablet testing technology. Excellent production techniques combined with modern microprocessor design guarantee the highest standards of performance and reliability. All disintegration testers meets the latest specifications as laid down in the European, united states and associated pharmacopoeia. Available in two stations (Models TD-20S/D), three stations (Models TD-30S/D) and four test stations (Model TD-40S/D). Select required model to suit application and affordability.Efficient, compact new design allows the user to observe the test better way. Smooth jerk-free almost maintenance-free drive design together with advanced microprocessor based design electronics assures top performance. It is ideal for both R&D and routine quality control applications. Ideal for testing the normal plain or coated and delayed release coated tablets and gelatin capsules. The electronic stroke control is provided with its micro-controller based motor drive guarantees an accuracy (better than) of ±1 stroke In new TD series of disintegration testers, the temperature is controlled by means of an internal bath heater. The heater controller/circulation has an accuracy of better than ± 0.2°C thus ensuring a constant and even distribution of heat throughout the bath.

The water bath is constructed such a way that the water inside the bath will be circulated properly to maintain even temperature all over the bath without effecting the dissolution. The bath temperature can be constantly monitored using the PT 100 temperature probe provided for this purpose. An external probe is provided to monitor the temperature inside the test beaker. Provision (optional) is made for logging the actual strokes per minute, set temperature and deviation with the set value, at user programmed intervals throughout the test for subsequent printing. The control is provided by a membrane keypad linked to 20X4 backlit LC Display, which together with modular type electronics makes instrument easy to operate and easy to service. New TD series disintegration testers are supports not only normal disintegration also suppository disintegration with optional suppository test basket with tank.
During the test the following information is shown on the display: Date, clock, temperature (set, bath and external), elapsed test time. An audible alarm alerts the user on completion of test and test baskets will park at top position. The TD series is provided with parallel printer port connection for print out of test report comprising the date and time of the test start and end of the test, method used, serial no of the instrument, date of validation together with the strokes per minute and temperature actual and set values at operator selectable time intervals during the test.

Specifications

We have specially designed this new type - of Precision Melting Point-cum-Boiling Point Apparatus; which can be used for finding out the melting point & boiling point of the substances with high degree of accuracy ambient to 320°C The characteristic feature of the instrument is a small U-shaped glass container made from corning glass, its two tubes which are open at top have a lateral connection. An electrically driven stirrer dips into the rear portion of the U-shaped tube. The front tube is fitted with a 'Teflon' plug which serves as : Entry for a thermometer Entry for three melting point capillary tubes of 1 mm dia. Entry for Boiling Point Capillary. Entry for a base plate on which rests the thermometer and the 3 capillary tubes, which ensures that the test material is on the same level as the bulb of the thermometer. The 'Teflon' plug also carries the electric heating coil. The U-Tube is filled with inner liquid (Silicon Oil) so that good circulation is ensured and that both the capillaries and thermometer are well immersed. The U-Tube and motor are clamped to a support rod. The based on the apparatus is made from steel and incorporates the following parts :A variable transformer 0 to 260 volts to the mains supply which allows stepless regulation of heating current. On the left of Rotary knob is main 'ON' and 'OFF' switch and a pilot lamp and on the right are two switches one for heating coil with illumination and the other for stirrer.

The base also supports an adjustable magnifying glass which permits excellent observation of the test material in the capillary tubes, which in turn, are illuminated by two-6 volt lamps. The magnifier is easily adjustable for the most favourable observation and the two light bulbs are screened to prevent glare.

Below the U-Tube there are holes on a tube which can be connected to a compressor, in order to allow rapid cooling of the heating medium, readiness for the next test.

The rate of temperature rise can be exactly adjusted within wide limits. The heat transfer to heater material and to the thermometer is intense and constant. The test sample and the thermometer are kept exactly at the same temperature. The instrument is very useful for determination of the so called 'Momentaneous' melting point; because the temperature can be maintained constant at any level.

The Precision Melting Point Apparatus can also be used as a Boiling Point Apparatus for determination of boiling point of liquids by using Boiling Point capillary supplied with equipment.

The equipment is suitable for 230 Volts single phase. 50 c/s Hz only.
Power : 230 V 50 Hz
110 V 50/60 Hz (Optional)

Melting Point Apparatus is used to detect the the melting point of substances. Digital Melting Point Apparatus makes measurements simple fast and very convenient an indispensable. Bench top tool for the busy modern laboratory.

This machine is specially designed for 100% visual inspection of tablets from both sides and 1,00,000 tablets per hour can be inspected on this GMP Model by employing 2 operators thereby reducing inspection cost considerably. Tablet Inspection belt consist of stainless steel complete body, S.S Hopper from which tablets fall on a magnetic vibrator that removes chips and dust from the tablets and feed them on 6 inches wide belt for one operator to inspect the other side of the tablets (minimum size of the tablet 3 mm & maximum size of the tablet 19 mm.) New microprocessor Electronic control panel gives new look and easy Operation. The intensity of the vibration of the vibrator can be varied to ensure smooth falling of tablets on the belt, similarly speed of the belt can also be adjusted so that inspection rate can be increased-decreased depending on the percentage of rejection. Complete body, Hopper, Top cover etc are made of stainless steel. Two foot switches are provided for the operators. The machine is suitable for 230 Volts Single Phase. A.C. 50 Hz & as per GMP Standard. Ideal for visual inspection of medicinal tablets, Ink Tablets, rubber caps, & Confectionary sweets etc.Specifications
