Pharmceutical gel cap testing

Brookfield Engineering Laboratories offers the new redesigned TA-CLT Capsule Loop Tensile Test Fixture for the CT3 Tester. The Capsule Loop Test Fixture is designed to measure the tensile breaking strength of hard gel capsules. The gel cap is mounted between two pins which pull apart, thereby measuring the force required to rupture the cap.

The Brookfield CT3 Tester is the best value in a stand-alone instrument for physical testing. It combines simplicity of operation with expanded test method capability and operates in both compression and tension modes.

Brookfield offers over a dozen test fixtures specifically designed for customers in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries and is constantly developing new accessories in response to customer needs.

TexturePro CT software controls the CT3 from a PC and enables the operator to automate test procedures and generate valuable analytical data.
