- Microplate mixing tasks can be completed quickly and safely by using an adjustable speed of 200 to 3,000 rpm
- The BioShake mixing technology is undoubtedly more reliable, vibration-free, and requires less upkeep than traditional mixers
- The BioShake XP receives its fundamental functionality from the exquisitely finished aluminum housing
- It offers a high level of security, ensures device stability, and prolongs device life
Gentle mixing of samples
By planar orbital motion

- The BioShake XP plate mixer, which is designed and produced in Germany, has a 2-dimensional shaking axis that is extremely effective and speeds up sample mixing compared to competing systems
- The mixing orbit of 2.0 mm remains constant at all times. In fact, the orbital shaking is so precisely controlled that after mixing, users never need to spin down their plates
- These precise tools can work with anything, including tubes, vials, high-density plates, and small sample volumes
- Fully adjustable between 200 and 3,000 rpm, which is significantly faster than the speeds offered by the majority of other brands, ensures quick, splatter-free mixing for tubes, glass vials, or an entire 384-well microplate
Comfort
Simple intuitive operation and programming

- The front face of the enclosure, which has touch buttons and a display, is where the BioShake XP is controlled
- The instrument can run sophisticated applications because it has special buttons for starting, stopping, and storing time and mixing modes
- This significantly improves routine application and offers fresh perspectives on daily laboratory work
- The short mix button enables in-between short and quick mixing
- The two-line LCD display ensures that all programmed and measured parameters, such as time and mixing frequency, can be read simultaneously and safely
Universal spring clamps
Suitable for all microplates

- Eight spring clamps are inserted in the corners of the plates to make it simple to fix deep well and skirted microplates in SBS format (127.7 × 85.5 mm) without an attached adapter
- Even when mixing frequencies are at their highest, these spring clamps lock the microplate quickly and securely
- Utilizing the appropriate PCR adapter is advised for flexible and deformable PCR plates
- It is simple and safe to carry out routine fast mixing processes with frequent plate changes
- To more precisely identify the error in the event of failure, the error list should be read out using an RS232 command
Unique design meets high-end technology
First-class finished aluminum housing

- Beautiful and clearly defined laboratory equipment is produced by combining an original and effective design with the smallest housing possible
- The BioShake XP’s primary functionality is thus provided by the high-quality finished aluminum housing. It ensures a long service life, high levels of security, and device stability
- It is obvious that user safety and usability are top priorities
Exchangeable adapters
For a wide range of applications
