Model · YD-3

An automatic tablet hardness tester that presses each tablet, measures its diameter and records the break force by itself, for up to 100 tablets per group. Range 2 to 199.9 N, or 2 to 499.9 N with the 50 kg option, at ±0.5% accuracy. The YD-2 adds a built-in printer for max, min, average and count. Designed to meet USP and EP requirements, with IQ/OQ documents free of charge.

Measure the moment a tablet breaks

A jaw advances at a steady rate and squeezes the tablet across its diameter. Force rises until the tablet fractures; the tester captures the peak as the break force and locks it on the display.

Questions buyers ask

Straight answers before you order.

What does a hardness tester measure?

The break force: the load needed to fracture a tablet across its diameter. It is a key check of mechanical integrity during compression and QC.

YD-2 or YD-3?

Both press automatically, measure diameter and test up to 100 tablets per group. The YD-2 adds a built-in printer and a larger 500 × 300 mm body.

Which range do I need?

2 to 199.9 N covers most tablets. For very hard tablets, choose the 50 kg version, 2 to 499.9 N.

Which voltage?

220 V / 50 Hz or 110 V / 60 Hz.
