A practical guide for improving laboratory weighing efficiency, data integrity and compliance in pharmaceutical workflows.
The Efficient Weighing Guide from Mettler Toledo explains how to optimise laboratory weighing processes in the pharmaceutical industry. It covers ergonomics, accuracy testing, data integrity, external physical influences and safety‑cabinet considerations, all aimed at reducing cycle time and meeting GLP/GMP requirements.
The guide also presents four typical applications – capsule filling, media preparation under harsh conditions, sample preparation using titrators, and standard preparation – and suggests automation and software solutions (LabX, Quantos, SmartPan, SmartTag) to improve accuracy, traceability and productivity.
| Balance range | 220 g |
|---|---|
| Minimum weighable mass (XPE206DR) | 6 mg |
| Readability (XPE206DR) | 0.005 mg |
| Readability (XPE205) | 0.01 mg |
GWP is a globally‑based weighing standard that provides a risk‑based management system for accurate, efficient use of weighing equipment.
SmartPan™ enables accurate weighing of samples as small as 5 mg even when no wind shield is used, reducing turbulence effects.
The XPE206DR analytical balance provides a 220 g range with a minimum weighable mass of 6 mg.
LabX laboratory software can connect to each balance, provide step‑by‑step guidance, and record data without a PC.
