The Caleva Mixer Torque Rheometer (MTR-3) is well established as a valuable formulation research tool.
It provides a way to quantitatively measure a wet mass in terms of the torque produced when shearing the granulation within a mixing bowl.
Designed to be:-
· A valuable tool for formulation development.
· A tool for process development and scale–up
· A quality control monitoring apparatus for production.
· A tool for basic research.
· A unique apparatus, easy to use and surprisingly useful.
CFR21 part 11 compliance available as an option
The MTR-3 will assist you to:-
· Dramatically increase the speed at which formulations can be developed and tested.
· Determine the optimum binder ratio and mixing time for experimental formulations with small amounts of material.
· Ensure that formulations are optimized to compensate for batch variations between formulation excipients.
· Identify source and batch variations within components that can affect the formulation properties and quality. These differences can be quantified and problems solved at an early stage.
· Produce quantitative data that can be used in a structured scale-up program for process development.
· Develop a scale–up scheme based on quantitative data obtained in small scale saving time and cost.
· Routinely batch test for consistency in a production runs.
