The Laboratory Shakers & Mixers category covers equipment and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. These products are not isolated purchases, because their performance is tied to the sample, surrounding equipment and the way the wider method is carried out. A practical point for this category is that grant and LLG Labware provide a variety of versatile laboratory vortexers and rockers that are ideal for rapid sample homogenization and gentle blotting, combining ease of use with professional performance.
Mixing efficiency depends on vessel geometry, viscosity, volume, speed range and the way energy is transferred into the sample. For dependable results, compare speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, temperature control, and mixing accessory and confirm that the selected item is suitable for both the immediate task and the surrounding workflow.
A reliable setup matches the mixing principle and accessory to the vessel, sample properties, temperature requirements and run time. Looking at the full sequence makes it easier to identify the correct accessories and consumables before the equipment is put into service in chemistry, life science, pharmaceutical, food, environmental and teaching laboratories. As part of the Laboratory Stirring, Shaking & Mixing range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Shakers & Mixers range
Our collection covers the main product groups used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion, from thermoshakers through to vortex mixers.
Laboratory Thermoshakers
The Laboratory Thermoshakers range covers equipment and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. CondensProtect technology, found in the ThermoTop, prevents condensation from forming on the tube lids, which helps maintain accurate concentration and prevents sample contamination.
Laboratory Microplate Shakers
The Laboratory Microplate Shakers range includes instruments, accessories and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Anti-spill technology prevents liquid from reaching the plate seal or splashing out of the wells, which is critical for preventing cross-contamination and maintaining sample volume.
Laboratory Orbital Shakers
The Laboratory Orbital Shakers range includes instruments, accessories and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Start with the application and sample, then compare mixing accessory, sample volume, viscosity, and speed or shaking range.
Laboratory Overhead Shakers
The Laboratory Overhead Shakers range covers equipment and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Multi-function rotators allow the user to combine vertical rotation, reciprocation, and vibration in one cycle, which is highly effective for complex sample preparation and preventing tube lid wetting.
Laboratory Reciprocating Shakers
The Laboratory Reciprocating Shakers range supports laboratories that need to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Orbital shakers move in a circular motion, ideal for cell cultures, while reciprocating (or horizontal) shakers move in a linear, back-and-forth motion, which is typically better for extraction and vigorous mixing.
Laboratory Rocking Shakers
The Laboratory Rocking Shakers range brings together products designed to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Start with the application and sample, then compare speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, temperature control, and mixing accessory.
Laboratory Roller Mixers
The Laboratory Roller Mixers range brings together products designed to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. Rollers with more tubes, such as the IKA Roller 10, provide a larger surface area to accommodate more samples simultaneously, while 6-roll models like the LLG uniROLLER are more compact for smaller batches.
Laboratory Tumbling Shakers
The Laboratory Tumbling Shakers range covers equipment and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. A rocking shaker moves in a two-dimensional see-saw motion, while a tumbling (or 3D) shaker combines orbital and rocking motions to create a three-dimensional "figure-eight" path for more thorough mixing.
Laboratory Vortexers
The Laboratory Vortexers range covers equipment and consumables used to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. The MS 3 Basic is a multi-purpose small shaker that can accommodate various attachments for microplates and different tube sizes, offering more versatility than a dedicated single-tube vortexer.
Featured brands
LLG Labware is represented in options relating to how do Grant and LLG Labware support routine sample mixing, Thermo Scientific is represented in options relating to thermo Scientific and Corning mixers for cell culture, IKA is represented in options relating to iKA a leader in laboratory shakers, and JULABO is known for circulators, water baths and precise liquid temperature control.
