Bruker’s minispec mq CCW is a Contactless Check Weighing instrument that is attracting significant interest, thanks to its unparalleled benefits for pharmaceutical production. The bench-top minispec mq CCW uses a magnetic resonance technology called TD-NMR. This technology is similar to MRI.
The pharmaceutical product is typically filled into vials, or syringes to a certain volume, which has to be carefully controlled. One common technique is weighing through a balance; however this is a two-step process and consumes significant amount of time. On the other hand, the CCW provides ease of calibration. The instrument can be calibrated by utilizing empty syringes or vials and adding different amounts of the desired product.
