Vimsaurograph is useful in measuring all three parameters for pharmaceutical powders in one shot.

• 1. Flowability of Hopper mix
• 2. Poured bulk density
• 3. Coefficient of friction of hopper mix (thereby Compressibility Index)

ADVANTAGES OF VIMSAUROGRAPH

This instrument is highly useful in Tablets and capsules industry. Hitherto, all these three parameters are determined for the powders separately and individually and also by trial and error method. 1. For tablets. before compressing this is essential.
2. For capsules, flowability, overfilling and under filling are indicated and optimized.
3. Thus this instrument is useful in solid dosage forms viz tablets and capsules manufacturing industry.
