Testing, R&D, and production for Inhalers, including MDI, Nasal Drugs, and soft mist inhalers.
The Fully Automated Actuator mitigates these issues through automated actuation mechanisms, enabling precise simulation and control of critical parameters such as spray actuation. This achieves accurate, controllable, and repeatable operation, significantly reducing reliance on complex manual manipulation inherent in traditional testing. It enhances R&D workflow efficiency while substantially improving the overall accuracy and reproducibility of test data.
Testing of MDIs, Nasal Sprays, and Nasal Aerosols is inherently susceptible to variability from multiple sources. Key influencing factors include shaking, actuation delay, and actuation force.
1.Precise Control & High Repeatability
♦ Employs dual-control technology for both speed and position. The actuation process precisely records positional and force data with extremely low repeatability error.
♦Supports high-speed data acquisition at 1 ms resolution, simultaneously capturing force, displacement stroke, and time—enabling generation of force-vs-time and displacement-vs-time profiles.
♦An integrated overload protection mechanism prevents damage to equipment or samples due to excessive force.1.Precise Control & High Repeatability force
2.Comprehensive Data Integrity Recording
♦ The software automatically and continuously stores sampled data in real time, providing highly reproducible and traceable test results suitable for regulatory submissions. Users can conveniently export all recorded data.
3.Intelligent Calibration & Motion Self-Check Function
♦ Utilizes a high-precision linear load cell; full-range calibration and verification can be completed using just two calibrated weights.
♦ A one-touch motion self-check function ensures operational stability for each run.
4.User Management
♦ Super Administrator: Full access to all functions including system configuration, method development, user management, balance verification, and motion validation.
♦ Administrator: Access to system configuration, method development, test execution, and data review.
♦ Operator: Access to predefined methods and test execution only.
5.Programmable Test Methods
♦ Allows programming of stroke speed, stroke acceleration, return speed, and return acceleration. The system automatically calculates the minimum required stroke distance and verifies whether the defined method meets the specified requirements.
6.Broad Compatibility & Adaptability
♦ Compatible with a wide range of inhaler devices for mainstream dosage forms including pMDIs, nasal drugs, and SMIs.
♦ Customization services are available to accommodate special devices or non-standard adapters.
