Copley offers a range of tools for all Pharmacopoeial assessments in powder flowability testing and density testing, including equipment to assess flow through an orifice, angle of repose, shear cell as well as compressibility index and Hausner ratio. The Flowability Tester BEP2 has been specifically designed to address the specifications by the Ph. Eur. and USP on Powder Flow. The Flowability Tester BEP2 from Copley provides a range of options for testing pharmaceutical powders including three of the four methods quoted in the Pharmacopoeias – flow through an orifice, angle of repose and shear cell – in a single, cost effective unit. Copley’s cylindrical shear cell attachment is ideal for determining flow properties based on the bulk density and shear strength of fine-grained powders and bulk solids. Providing important information on a given material’s behaviour in bins, hoppers, feeders and other handling equipment, the Copley shear cell enables precise control of test parameters for a wide range of flowability measurements.
