Introduction

Rockers, rollers, and shakers are sophisticated laboratory instruments that are used for sample mixing, vortexing, and gentle agitation. Our rotators, rollers, and shakers are explicitly designed to provide a specific function, reliability, and safety. These tools are found on a laboratory benchtop and are used for a variety of applications including DNA extraction, cell culture, reagent mixing, gel staining, blotting, and low foaming agitation.

Rockers

A Laboratory rocker is a cutting-edge tool used for molecular and biological mixing. Rockers could be used to replace shakers if less-aggressive mixing is required. They are usually employed in molecular biology labs for staining and destaining gels after electrophoresis, hybridization, blotting, cell culturing, and gentle mixing. 

Two-dimensional rockers are equipped with a moving platform that moves in a seesaw motion to create waves in liquid samples. Whereas, the three-dimensional rocker has a platform that moves in a three-dimensional gyratory motion which makes the samples swirl three-dimensionally.

Key Specifications

• Our laboratory rockers offer variable speeds and tilt angles. 
• These rockers are specially designed with multiple tiers to enhance the capacity without increasing the footprint. 
• Platform surfaces are covered with rubber pads to hold the objects while moving. 
• It is equipped with an easy-to-use, “power and go” platform, which is safe for incubators and cold rooms. 
• The 12″ x 12″ platform includes a non-skid rubber flat mat.
