Superior Mixing Action For Gels & Blots.

• Heated lid prevents condensation
• Accepts plates up to 40 mm high
• Independently control time, temperature and speed
• Available in two-plate (IM6002) or four plate format (IM6004)

The new Incu-Mixer MP series is designed to provide an optimal method for vortexing and incubating microplates. Simultaneous heating from both the bottom plate and the heated lid provide temperature uniformity throughout the sample. Additionally, the heated lid minimizes evaporation and prevents condensation. A compact, 2 mm orbit ensures thorough mixing in microplates without splashing. Speed, time and temperature are all displayed in real time on the large LCD screen while an internal validation system constantly monitors all parameters for accuracy.

Designed for application flexibility, the Incu-Mixer series is available in two, and four-plate capacities, both capable of accepting all standard plates up to 40 mm high. Independent time, temperature and speed controls allow the mixer to function as 3 machines in one; a multi-plate incubator, vortexer, or a combination of the two. The Incu-Mixer MP series is ideal for a wide variety of molecular biology applications including immunochemical reactions, enzyme and protein analysis, and micro array analysis.

Freedom Rocker™ BotBlot® 

The Freedom Rocker™ BlotBot® is an automated blot processor. The fully programmable blot processing station automates the tedious incubation and washing steps required to process blots and gels, thus saving time and money through increased productivity. All trays receive the same reagent or wash buffer at the same time, in equal volumes, ensuring consistency.

Simply dispense individual reagents (in volumes as low as 3.5 mL) into appropriate trays and recover them separately. This allows the conservation of primary antibodies. The control panel has a large graphic display and intuitive layout making it easy to program protocols. These protocols can include different rocking speeds and times for each step. 

BlotBot® with a clear window can be employed when using reagents that are not light-sensitive in western blots. BlotBot® with a blackout window is recommended when using fluorescent reagents in western blots to preserve their integrity.

• Automated delivery and removal of buffers/reagents
• Dispense and recover different antibodies or reagents in each tray
• Only 3.5 mL or reagent per blot is needed due to specially designed trays
• Reagent recovery
• Easy to use-just plug in
• Quiet, no air or vacuum connections necessary
• Drip-proof quick-release connections
• 2-year warranty

RoboRocker

210 Series

Programmable rocker designed for microfluidic organoid and 3D cell culture. Touch screen user interface. Racks securely hold plates and come in 2 and 4 level options. Most culture plates are designed for rocking along the length of the plate. Select a forward facing rack for those that need to rock across the width of the plate. Platforms have a removable docking bar (plate alignment bar). 

*Stacking platforms are available for purchase separately.

Heavy Duty 310 series

Programmable, heavy duty tilt platform designed for microfluidic organoid and 3D cell culture. Touch screen user interface. Heavy Duty with 22 lb. (10 kg) capacity. The 11.5 x 11.5 In. (29 x 29 cm) platform has 6 removable well plate docks in a 3 x 2 array. The platform can hold more than 6 plates if the plates are stacked. The dock guides can be removed to allow the platform to hold items other than well plates. The platform can be rotated so that the well plates tilt along their length or along their width.

*Note that this model has a 3D-printed housing and a full 1 year warranty.

High Speed 750 series

Programmable RoboRocker 750 series rockers are designed for high shear flow for 3D cell and organoid culture systems. The High Speed 750 series rockers can travel at high speeds, which allows it to burst to the desired angle. This is useful if you want high shear flow immediately, rather than “using up” culture medium while the culture plate is traveling to the steep angle. This model is geared for high speed. Positioning is very accurate but not as accurate as the 210 series RoboRockers.

Additional Stackable platform

The 11.5 x 11.5 In. platform has six removable well plate/culture plate docks in a 3 x 2 array. The platform can hold more than 6 plates if the plates are stacked. The dock guide can be removed to allow the platform to hold items other than plates. The dock guide can be positioned so that the plates tilt along their length or their width. 11 lb. (5 kg) load capacity.

Programming

• Basic program: programmable speed, tilt angle, and pause. “Symmetric” program – same speed, tilt angle, and pause times in both directions.
• Standard program: “Asymmetric” programming. Store up to 3 programs. Extreme slow-motion feature.
• Advanced program: Pulsatile flow control. Program scheduling for changing flow conditions over time. Store up to 6 programs.
