The Laboratory Sieve Shakers category brings together products designed to convert incoming materials into a representative and method-compatible form before measurement, extraction or analysis. In a working laboratory, the category supports more than a single task because it connects preparation, handling, operation and routine maintenance around the same method.
Poor grinding, mixing, pressing, cutting or subsampling can introduce more variability than the analytical instrument itself. For dependable results, compare heat sensitivity, cleaning and changeover, sample material, and required particle size or geometry and confirm that the selected item is suitable for both the immediate task and the surrounding workflow.
The preparation route should control particle size, homogeneity, contamination, heat generation and final sample geometry. This coordinated approach is particularly useful in materials, mining, food, pharmaceutical, environmental, chemical and research laboratories, where repeatability and clear operating procedures matter. As part of the Sample Preparation Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Sieve Shakers range
Our collection covers makes the as 450 control different from standard shakers, benefits of using retsch easysieve software, choosing the right clamping device, and these shakers for wet sieving, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
Makes the AS 450 Control different from standard shakers
The AS 450 Control is a heavy-duty analytical shaker specifically designed for high-volume samples and larger sieve diameters (up to 450 mm), providing the power needed for industrial-scale particle analysis. When comparing options, consider heat sensitivity, cleaning and changeover, and sample material. The correct choice should fit the sample, expected workload and any equipment already used in the method. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories produce representative samples that are compatible with the chosen analytical method. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
Benefits of using Retsch EasySieve software
EasySieve software automates the entire sieving process, from controlling the shaker to weighing and data evaluation, significantly reducing human error and improving repeatability. When comparing options, consider cleaning and changeover, sample material, and required particle size or geometry. The correct choice should fit the sample, expected workload and any equipment already used in the method. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories produce representative samples that are compatible with the chosen analytical method. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
Choosing the right clamping device
The clamping device must match your test sieve diameter; for example, Retsch offers specific "Comfort" models for 200/203 mm, 305 mm, and 400/450 mm sieves to ensure a secure fit. Selection should take account of sample material, required particle size or geometry, and batch size. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. This is especially valuable when teams need to produce representative samples that are compatible with the chosen analytical method. Consistent handling also reduces the risk of variation between batches or operators.
These shakers for wet sieving
While the shakers provide the mechanical action, specific wet sieving accessories (like specialised lids and collection pans) are typically required to manage the liquid phase during the process. When comparing options, consider required particle size or geometry, batch size, and contamination tolerance. The correct choice should fit the sample, expected workload and any equipment already used in the method. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories produce representative samples that are compatible with the chosen analytical method. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
