Vertical Rotating Tube Mixer
Vertical Rotating Tube Mixer systems from Vertex Analytical provide gentle end-over-end sample mixing for laboratories that require continuous rotation of blood collection tubes, centrifuge tubes, and microcentrifuge tubes. Designed for applications in biotechnology, molecular biology, clinical laboratories, and research facilities, these benchtop mixers support a wide range of tube sizes from 1.5 ml to 50 ml. Interchangeable tube racks allow users to configure the system for different sample formats, while adjustable speed and timer controls provide flexibility for various laboratory protocols. Available in economical brush motor models and digital brushless motor models, the Vertical Rotating Tube Mixer offers an affordable solution for routine laboratory mixing applications throughout South Africa.
Overview
The Vertex Analytical Vertical Rotating Tube Mixer is designed for laboratories that require continuous long-axis rotation for sample mixing, incubation, and suspension applications. The end-over-end rotational motion helps maintain sample homogeneity while providing gentle mixing for sensitive biological materials.
Unlike traditional vortex mixers, a Vertical Rotating Mixer continuously rotates samples without creating excessive agitation. As a result, it is well suited for cell suspensions, blood samples, protein studies, extraction procedures, and molecular biology workflows.
The compact benchtop design allows laboratories to maximize workspace while supporting multiple sample formats through interchangeable rack systems.
Flexible Tube Holder Options
