AELAB Tablet Hardness Tester YD-I Series – Precision Tablet Testing

A tablet hardness tester is a device used to measure the mechanical strength of tablets. It determines the force required to break a tablet by applying pressure until the tablet fractures. This ensures tablets are durable enough to withstand packaging, shipping, and handling, while still being able to disintegrate properly in the body. Maintaining the correct hardness is essential for ensuring consistent quality, efficacy, and shelf-life of pharmaceutical tablets.

Features:

• LCD Display. High-precision pressure sensor ensures the precision and reproducibility of test.
• Easy operation: Manual loading andmanual tablet compressing for AE-YD-I, manual single tablet andautomatic continuation for AE-YD-II/III.
• Automatic display, automatic latching, automatic reset, automatic cycle test, automatic linear error correction and automatic fault diagnosis.
• Unit conversion function,can realize the conversion before or after the tests.
• Strong data processing ability; statistics, analysis, printing and display are available for test result.(only for AE-YD-II)
• Built-inprinter. (only for AE-YD-III)

✅ 🔬 How It Works?
The YD-I Series tablet hardness tester applies increasing force to a tablet until it fractures, using a high-precision pressure sensor to ensure accuracy. The unit captures peak breaking force, with automatic latching, display, and reset functions in higher models. While YD-I operates manually, YD-II and YD-III support continuous testing and feature built-in data analysis and, in YD-III, integrated printing capabilities.

✅ 💡 Advantages

• 🔹 High-precision pressure sensors ensure consistent and repeatable measurements.

• 🔹 Multiple operating modes for flexibility: manual or semi-automatic.

• 🔹 Automatic features reduce user error and increase workflow efficiency.

• 🔹 Built-in printer (YD-III) simplifies record-keeping and reporting.

• 🔹 Robust data processing capabilities, including statistics and analysis (YD-II and YD-III).

• 🔹 Compact footprint ideal for lab benches.

✅ 🔍 Recommended Models by Use Case

• YD-I: Perfect for educational institutions and small pharmaceutical R&D labs requiring manual testing.

• YD-II: Best suited for medium-scale pharmaceutical manufacturers with moderate testing volume.

• YD-III: Ideal for high-throughput QC departments needing data printing and automation.

✅ 🧪 Ideal For

• Pharmaceutical R&D laboratories

• Quality control departments

• Teaching and demonstration labs in pharmacy schools

• Nutraceutical manufacturers

• Regulatory and compliance labs
