# Tap density measurement laboratory

## As an industrialist you want to measure the tap density of your powders

Tapped density is the density of a material obtained by tapping. The measurement of tapped density is carried out using a tamping volumometer for granular materials. This device allows the measurement of the settling ability, a dynamic characteristic of a granular material, and the creation of settlement kinetic curves.

The behaviour of a powder and in particular its flowability is important in the manufacturing process of a product. Being able to determine the density measurement of the powders they use is therefore essential for many manufacturers, particularly in the [chemical](https://filab.fr/en/our-services/our-analysis-services/chemical-analysis-laboratory/laboratory-analysis-industrial.md), [pharmaceutical](https://filab.fr/en/sectors-of-activity/health-pharmaceutical-cosmetics/laboratory-pharmaceutical-cosmetic-analysis.md) and food industries.
