Friability testing is used to test the durability of tablets during packing processes and transit. This involves repeatedly dropping a sample of tablets over a fixed time, using a rotating drum with a baffle. The result is inspected for broken tablets, and the percentage of tablet mass lost through chipping. All Pharma Test friability testers are fully compliant to the current SP and EP Pharmacopeia and come with friability („Roche“) drums included in the standard scope of supply. Abrasion drums as well as an anti-static coating are available as options.
