Tapped Density Meter
Labotronics tapped density meter, commonly used in pharmaceutical and powder characterization industries, is an instrument designed to measure the tapped density of powdered or granular materials. Tapped density refers to the volume occupied by a powder after it has undergone a specific tapping or vibration process. Our instrument typically comprises a cylindrical container that holds the sample and a mechanism to tap or vibrate it under controlled conditions. During the test, the powder settles and compacts, reducing its volume, which is quantified by the meter. Tapped density is crucial in applications like pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing, as it affects the uniformity and weight of the tablets, which directly impact drug dosage and efficacy. It is also essential in assessing the flowability and packing properties of powders, crucial in various industries, including food, cosmetics, and materials science, where consistent product quality is essential.
