It measures the force required to break a tablet by a diametric compression test.
It is a horizontal loading mechanical strength testing machine.
Equipped with microcontroller based circuitry, specially designed to measure Hardness, Diameter and Thickness of the tablets.
Measuring units for Thickness and Diameter: mm (Millimeter) or IN (Inches) hardness selectable in either Newton (N), kilopond (kp) or Strong Cobb (Sc).
Provides connectivity to any balance via RS 232 interface to weigh the tablets before and after conducting the test
