FBRM® [Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement] is a real-time quantitative measurement tracking the rate and degree of change to particles, particle structures, and droplets as they actually exist in process. The inline FBRM® measurement enables engineers to quickly link particle system dynamics to processing conditions.
Track Particle and Droplet Distributions in Real Time
- Optimize Your Particle System – FBRM® tracks the rate and degree of change to particles, particle structures and droplets as they actually exist in process.
- Fingerprint Your Particle System – The precise and sensitive FBRM® distributions enables users to fingerprint particle systems based on particle dimension, shape, count.
- Control Process Repeatability – FBRM® trends enable users to identify and troubleshoot unexpected process changes. Therefore, FBRM® can be used to minimize batch failures, improve yield, and troubleshoot scale-up or technology transfer.
- Correlate Particle Measurement to Quality and Performance – By understanding the particle performance, chemists and engineers can link upstream process control parameters (addition rate, mixing, or temperature) to downstream process efficiency (filtration/separations efficiency, dissolution rate, etc.) and optimize product quality (yield, bulk density).
After purchasing Lasentec® in 2001, METTLER TOLEDO has become the world leader for inline particle/droplet size, shape, and count characterization.
