SBT 2 Suppository Penetration Tester

Description

The SBT 2 is a dedicated instrument for evaluating the mechanical hardness of suppositories. It features an electrically heated chamber that maintains a controlled temperature environment, which is critical for simulating physiological conditions during testing. An integrated sample holder accommodates the suppository, and a set of interchangeable plastic inserts allows the unit to securely hold suppositories of various sizes and shapes. This design ensures consistent positioning for repeatable penetration force measurements. With overall dimensions of 290 mm in width, 230 mm in depth, and 570 mm in height, the tester is a compact benchtop device suitable for quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical industry.
