The VWR® Mini Nutating 3-D Mixer is a compact, fixed-speed laboratory shaker that combines orbital shaking and rocking motion to generate a gentle yet effective three-dimensional mixing action. This dual-motion mechanism is ideal for re-suspending cells, mixing blood samples, or agitating contents in centrifuge tubes without causing foaming or sample disruption.
The fixed 20° tilt angle and 20 rpm speed have been optimized to provide consistent and reproducible results for a wide variety of routine mixing applications. The mixer’s compact footprint and durable design make it suitable for use in cold rooms and incubators with temperature ranges from 4 to 65 °C and up to 85% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Key Features
- 3-Dimensional mixing motion (orbital + rocking)
- Gentle, uniform agitation suitable for sensitive biological samples
- Fixed speed (20 min⁻¹) and fixed angle (20°) for simplified operation
- Designed for blood and centrifuge tube mixing
- Ideal for use in cold rooms, incubators, or ambient environments
- Low power consumption (3.6 W) for energy-efficient operation
- Compact design with IP54-rated housing for protection against dust and splashes
- Supplied with a dimpled rubber mat to securely hold tubes in place
Applications
- Gentle re-suspension of cells and pellets
- Mixing of blood samples and biological reagents
- Agitation of tubes in clinical, research, or diagnostic labs
- Buffer and reagent mixing for molecular biology workflows
- General-purpose mixing in low-volume assays
