Precision Weighing for Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences

Analytical balances used in pharmaceutical dispensing must deliver repeatability within ±0.1 mg and maintain linearity across the full capacity range. A&D Japan's Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS) technology combines electromagnetic force restoration with single-point parallelogram load sensing, achieving 1-second stabilisation without sacrificing accuracy at the extremes of capacity. The BM Series micro-analytical balances extend this to 0.001 mg readability for API formulation work, while the GH and GR Series cover the 120 g–310 g range required for most solid-dosage dispensing.

Moisture content is a critical quality attribute for active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients, and finished tablets. The A&D MS-70 and MX-50 moisture analyzers use Secondary Radiation Assist (SRA) halogen heating — a technology that provides uniform heat distribution without hotspots — to deliver repeatable loss-on-drying results in under 5 minutes. Resolution to 0.001% moisture content satisfies pharmacopoeial drying specifications including USP ⟨731⟩ and BP moisture methods.

AND Gulf's calibration service issues certificates that document the full measurement uncertainty budget to k=2 (95% confidence) with DAC/ENAS traceable reference weights. These certificates are formatted for direct submission to GMP auditors and the UAE Ministry of Health. Our mobile calibration lab can perform on-site work at your facility across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the wider GCC — eliminating the instrument downtime and chain-of-custody risk of sending balances off-site.
