As the roller mechanism rotates through each complete revolution, the right side of each roller is gently elevated about 0.5 in (13mm) and returns to the horizontal starting position. This additional, gentle up/down motion provides a “wave” effect and guarantees that the entire sample is subjected to complete, thorough mixing, end to end. This built in tilt feature provides a level of homogeneous mixing uniformity that can not be matched by any stationary roller apparatus.

From blood collection tubes to roller bottles, Benchmark TubeRollers are the ideal choice for research, clinical laboratories and doctors’ offices.
 

• Gentle rolling motion
• Smooth +/-5° tilt action
• For tubes/bottles from 8mm to 200mm diameter
• Two models: 5 roller and 10 roller

For applications requiring temperature control, the Roto-Therm series can be digitally programmed to maintain chamber temperatures of ambient +5°C to 60°C and include an “in-lab” calibration function for ensuring accurate temperature control.

The Roto-Therm is also available in a “Plus” configuration, providing the following additional features:

Variable speed:           5 to 70rpm
“Mix” function:            Rotating in combination w/ oscillations (increased mixing)
“Pause” function:        Rotating with intermittent “stops” during rotation
“Rock” function:          Back and forth, gentle rocking motion (see-saw)

The Plus model also offer an additional rocking platform (4.5 x 3 in.), as well as a 96 x 0.2ml tube/strip/plate holder for mixing PCR vessels in the “Mix” (oscillating) mode.
 

• Rotated mixing with temperature control
• Includes tube holders for common tube sizes
• Available with variable speed control and advanced shaking/ mixing modes: Mix (Oscillating), Pause, Rock

The RotoBot and RotoBot Mini each inlcude an assortment of vertical tube holders. The Mini model is supplied with holders for 12 x 1.5ml tubes, 2 x 15ml & 2 x 50ml tubes; the standard model, 30 x 1.5/2.0ml, 8 x 15ml & 2 x 50ml tubes. For higher capacity applications, more of these holders can be purchased as accessories. In addition, horizontal holders are available for applications such as Western blotting and hybridization. The unique, sliding attachment allows for quick and easy changing of tube holders.

For rocking applications, a platform with a non-slip rubber mat is available. Once attached, simply select the “PP” mode to turn the rotator into a platform rocker.
 

• Advanced programming with a wide variety of rotational modes
• Set for full 360° rotation, or interrupt rotations with pausing & mixing intervals
• Slow rotating to vigorous mixing
• Cold room and incubator safe
• Accepts common tubes from 1.5 to 50ml
• Optional rocking platform

Three rotisserie tube holders are included for mixing all common laboratory sample tubes and each individual tube holder is rubber coated to provide a secure grip, preventing any “wobble” or loosening during mixing at high speeds.

For more intense mixing, a unique reversing mode is available. In reversing mode, the mixer rotates for up to 360° then stops and rotates in the reverse direction. This back and forth motion occurs repeatedly until the set time has expired.

• Adjustable speed and tilt angle
• Reversing mode, for more intense mixing
• Cold room and incubator safe
• Includes three rotisseries for all common tube sizes

The Roto-Mini rotator is also available in a “Plus” configuration, providing the following additional features:

Variable speed:          5 to 70rpm
“Mix” function:           Rotating in combination w/ oscillations (increased mixing)
“Pause” function:       Rotating with intermittent “stops” during rotation
“Rock” function:         Back and forth, gentle rocking motion (see-saw)

The Plus models also offer an additional rocking platform (4.5 x 3 in.), as well as a 96 x 0.2ml tube/strip/plate holder for mixing PCR vessels in the “Mix” (oscillating) mode.
