From Germany to the whole world
ERWEKA was founded in 1951 by the company founders ERwin, WErner and KArl. The first product was the predecessor of the AR 403 (seen in the photo), the AR 400. The goal was to supply every pharmacy in Germany with a versatile piece of equipment that enables the pharmacist to create salves, powders and more directly in their local shop.
ERWEKA’s “Made in Germany” equipment improves the quality of medicines, with products such as MultiCheck and RoboDis contributing to more efficiency in quality control of tablet and other medicine forms across the world.
In 1982 ERWEKA developed the first multi-functional hardness tester measuring the weight, thickness, length, width, and hardness of tablets. In 2012 ERWEKA were the first ones to launch a 100% USP-compliant, fully automated dissolution testing system, the RoboDis II, who can analyze with UV-Vis and HPLC automatically.
Latest MulitCheck 6 with its patented "Oblong Navigator" is THE leading product in hardness combination testing.
Innovations like these provide access to safe medicines around the world. they are driven by the motivation to continue this for generations to come.
