Tablet Hardness Tester — Crushing Strength Measurement

The Tablet Hardness Tester measures the crushing strength (breaking force) of pharmaceutical tablets as per USP <1217>, IP, and BP specifications. A tablet is placed between two jaws, and the instrument applies a continuously increasing compressive force until the tablet fractures. The peak force at fracture (in Newtons or kiloponds) is recorded as the tablet hardness — a key QC parameter controlling tablet friability, disintegration time, and dissolution rate.

JS Civil Lab Solutions supplies digital and manual tablet hardness testers for pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing QC labs and research departments.

Specifications

  • Force range: 0–200 N (digital) or 0–30 kp (manual)
  • Resolution: 0.1 N
  • Jaw configuration: Fixed + moving jaw (motorised or manual crank)
  • Tablet orientation: Automatic diameter measurement in motorised models
  • Display: Digital LCD with peak hold and statistics (mean, SD, min, max)
  • Memory: Last 10 readings with batch average
  • Compliance: USP <1217>, IP, BP, ICH Q6A

Hardness Targets

Typical tablet hardness targets: 40–80 N for standard-release tablets, 80–150 N for film-coated tablets, 100–200 N for extended-release matrix tablets. Low hardness causes capping and friability failures; high hardness slows disintegration. The hardness tester is tested alongside the disintegration tester (ID 1110) and friability tester (ID 1114) as a complementary tablet QC set.
