Product Details

Ampoules are commonly used to contain pharmaceuticals and they are hermetically sealed by melting the thin top with an open flame, and usually opened by snapping off the neck. The proper breaking force of the neck is crucial for both the pharmaceutical safety and clinical application.

 The ampoule break tester is used to measure the force to separate the ampoule and neck. A proper breaking force of the neck is crucial for both the pharmaceutical safety and clinical.
Ampoule Breaking Strength Tester can be used to have the quantitative test of ampoule breaking strength.

STANDARDS

ISO 9187-1: Injection equipment for medical use- Part 1: Ampoules for Injectables
ISO 9187-2: Injection equipment for medical use- Part 2: One-point-cut(OPC) ampoules

PRINCIPLE

An ampoule sample is place on the fixtures and the pressing head is driven down by the power system at the speed of 10 mm/m. The breaking strength is detected by the high precision load cell when the pressing head touches ampoule neck and breaks it.

Test Process

The ampoule is placed horizontally on the supporting holder. The press chuck is driven by the moving beam to contact the
connection between the bottleneck and the bottle body in the specified speed, and the high-precision force value loadcell records the force value change in real time.

FEATURES

BST-01 ampoule breaking tester is more than this application. It is a compression device with constant rate of displacement, with industrial level stability. Other usage can also be applied in pharmaceutical and medical sector, such as compression, cap opening, syringe gliding force, puncture, stopper penetration etc.

Key features include it’s PLC control unit and HMI touch screen. The use of stepper motor and precision ball-lead screw realized accurate speed setting. Safety is one concern of performing ampoule breaking test. We provide broken sample collecting tube and a protection cover for jumping sample.
