Product Description
Fully automatic gelatin capsule digital hardness test system
FDA 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant with a 3-Q Validation Report

The Bareiss GELOMAT Automatic Capsule Hardness Tester is a fully automatic and modular digital hardness tester commonly used by many of the leading pharmaceutical vitamins and even paintball companies around the world. In today’s increasingly interconnected and highly regulated global markets, adherence to ‘critical-to-quality’ attributes is required to deliver best-in-class products. To prevent defective capsules from reaching the market, these companies are relying on a reliable capsule hardness tester to apply a compressive force to the gelatin capsules to confirm they have sufficient wall strength to withstand external forces during manufacturing, storage, packaging, transport, and finally when used by a consumer.

Operating Procedures
line

  1. The electronic unit is switched on and the additional weights are loaded on the pickup bracket for the measuring load of range 0-20 N and no additional load is required for the measuring load of 0-2N.
  2. For Gelatin capsules centrofix fixture is used on the supporting table. Care must be taken to align the centrofix parallel to pick up bracket which is tightened with the help of knurled screws.
  3. The distance between the indenter and the centrofix should be adjusted up to 10 mm by loosening the clamping lever of the pickup bracket and pushing down carefully unit this distance is reached.
  4. The counter nut is loosened, and the knurled nut is rotated until the indenter is in the center of the template.
  5. The measurement is started by pressing the ‘Start’ button on the electronic unit and the measuring device is lowered onto the capsule automatically.
  6. After reaching the activated lift the measuring device moves back to its initial position. The recommended lift is 2.0 mm.
  7. The measured value is shown on the display and is transferred via the interface at the same time.
