Fixed Speed Mixers

Fixed speed mixers are laboratory instruments used to mix, homogenize, or agitate samples. These mixers typically operate at a single speed and are designed to provide consistent and reliable mixing. These mixers are used in a wide range of laboratory applications, including sample preparation, reagent mixing, biochemical assays, and cell culture. They are often preferred over variable speed mixers in applications that require consistent and reproducible mixing, as the fixed speed ensures that the same mixing conditions are maintained throughout the experiment. Fixed speed mixers are available in a variety of types, including vortex mixers, magnetic stirrers, and overhead stirrers. Vortex mixers use a small platform that vibrates rapidly to mix samples held in test tubes, vials or other containers. Magnetic stirrers, on the other hand, use a magnetic stir bar that is placed inside the sample container and is rotated by a magnetic field created by the mixer. Overhead stirrers, also called mechanical stirrers, use a motor-driven shaft with a propeller-like blade to mix samples in larger volumes or viscous solutions. Available below are a variety of vortex fixed speed mixers from top industry brands such as Benchmark Scientific, Scilogex and Scientific Industries.
