Friability testing is used to test the durability of tablets during packing processes and transit. This involves repeatedly dropping a sample of tablets over a fixed time, using a rotating drum with a baffle. The result is inspected for broken tablets, and the percentage of tablet mass lost through chipping.

QFR 200 is a Double drum tablet friability and abrasion test instrument. It is manufactured in compliance to the USP (1216), EP (2.9.7) and JP (14) Pharmacopoeias.
