Adjustable Speed Mixers

Adjustable speed mixers are laboratory devices that allow the user to control the speed at which samples are mixed. Adjustable Speed Mixers are common in the life sciences and are used in cell culture and microbiology to suspend cells, mix reagents, or to mix experimental samples. They are particularly useful in experiments that require different speeds for different stages or steps, or when working with samples of different viscosities or sizes. Unlike fixed speed mixers, which operate at a single speed, adjustable speed mixers can be set to a range of speeds, depending on the specific requirements of the experiment. Adjustable speed mixers give a lab precise mixing while enabling them to have the flexibility of changing the setting from gentle to vigorous. These mixers come in different types, including magnetic stirrers, vortex mixers, and overhead stirrers. They use different mechanisms to achieve variable speed control. For example, magnetic stirrers may have a control knob or a digital display that allows the user to set the rotation speed of the magnetic stir bar. Vortex mixers may have a variable speed dial or a touchpad interface that controls the vibration frequency of the platform. Overhead stirrers may have a control panel with a digital display that shows the rotation speed of the stirring blade, and buttons or dials to adjust the speed. Available below are a variety of adjustable speed mixers from top industry brands such as Benchmark Scientific, Scilogex and Scientific Industries.
