Japanese to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / 製薬器具
Japanese term or phrase: 調製器具
This is an instrument to mix raw materials to produce medication. What is the right word for this type of 調製? Preparation? It appears that this is a lab-scale (not production-scale) instrument and this is not to dispense medication for patients.

componding device


Explanation:
Compounding, preparation and formulation are all used for 調製, but their uses are sligthly different case by case. I think compounding is suitable for the context. Please see references linked.

Explanation:
In the context of that you showed, this one word could have whole mean 調整器具. I think, not need to be consisted of two words absolutely?

A point that has be cleared is not 調整, but 器具.
