This is compression test for measuring the hardness of tablets (pharmaceutical tablets). In this video, a tablet is pushed until it breaks using IMADA force gauge and a flat attachment. This test determines the hardness of tablets by obtaining the maximum load value when fracture initiates. Watch the video for more details. Tablet hardness testing is used for R&D and quality control.
