AELAB provides different mixing technologies for liquids, suspensions, powders, tubes, flasks, bottles, microplates and other laboratory containers.
| Equipment Type | Typical Function |
|---|---|
| Magnetic Stirrer | Provides controlled stirring of liquids by rotating a magnetic stirring bar inside the sample container. |
| Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer | Combines liquid stirring and controlled heating for reagent preparation, dissolution and temperature-dependent mixing. |
| Multi-Position Magnetic Stirrer | Allows several vessels to be stirred simultaneously for parallel sample preparation and routine laboratory processing. |
| Orbital Shaker | Moves samples in a circular orbital pattern for mixing liquids in flasks, bottles, trays and culture vessels. |
| Linear Shaker | Produces a horizontal back-and-forth motion for controlled mixing, extraction and sample preparation. |
| Rocking Shaker | Creates a gentle rocking movement for staining, washing, blotting, suspension maintenance and biological applications. |
| Three-Dimensional Shaker | Generates a smooth three-dimensional movement for gentle and uniform mixing of sensitive samples. |
| Vortex Mixer | Provides rapid localized mixing of liquids in test tubes, centrifuge tubes and small containers. |
| Tube Roller | Continuously rolls tubes or bottles to maintain homogeneous suspensions and provide gentle sample mixing. |
| Rotating Mixer and Tube Rotator | Rotates tubes through a controlled circular motion for sample resuspension, incubation and reagent mixing. |
| Microplate Shaker | Provides consistent mixing inside microplates for immunoassays, clinical testing, research and sample preparation. |
| Platform Shaker | Supports different containers and sample holders for general laboratory shaking and batch processing. |
| Blood Tube Mixer | Provides gentle and continuous movement for blood collection tubes and other clinical sample containers. |
The correct mixing motion depends on the sample, container, required intensity and laboratory procedure. Different movements can produce significantly different mixing results.
Orbital Motion
A circular horizontal movement commonly selected for flasks, bottles, culture vessels and general liquid mixing.
Reciprocating Motion
A straight back-and-forth movement suitable for extraction, dissolution and controlled sample agitation.
Rocking Motion
A gentle tilting movement used when low-shear mixing and smooth liquid movement are required.
Rolling Motion
Rotates cylindrical containers continuously to maintain sample uniformity without aggressive agitation.
Rotating Motion
Turns tubes end-over-end or around a central axis for resuspension, incubation and continuous mixing.
Vortex Motion
Creates a rapid circular liquid flow for fast mixing of small-volume samples in individual tubes.

Selecting laboratory mixing equipment should not be based only on speed. The user should also consider the required movement, sample volume, container type, platform capacity, mixing intensity, operating time and environmental conditions.
| Selection Factor | Questions to Consider |
|---|---|
| Required Mixing Motion | Does the procedure require orbital, linear, rocking, rolling, rotating, vortex or three-dimensional movement? |
| Sample Type | Will the system process liquids, suspensions, cultures, blood tubes, reagents, powders or viscous formulations? |
| Container Type | Will test tubes, centrifuge tubes, microplates, flasks, beakers, bottles or other vessels be used? |
| Speed Range | What minimum and maximum mixing speeds are required by the laboratory method? |
| Mixing Intensity | Does the sample require gentle low-shear movement or rapid intensive mixing? |
| Working Capacity | How many containers or samples must be processed during each operating cycle? |
| Platform Size | What platform dimensions and maximum loading capacity are required? |
| Sample Holders | Are clamps, racks, rollers, microplate holders, flask holders or customized fixtures required? |
| Heating Requirement | Is room-temperature mixing sufficient, or is controlled heating required during operation? |
| Timer and Programming | Is continuous operation sufficient, or are timed cycles and programmable settings needed? |
| Operating Environment | Will the equipment be used on a laboratory bench, inside an incubator, cold room or controlled chamber? |
| Display and Control | Are digital speed control, timer display, temperature indication or memory functions required? |
The AELAB range is organized into different equipment families so laboratories can select an appropriate mixing principle according to their samples and operating procedures.

What types of laboratory mixers and shakers does AELAB supply?
AELAB supplies magnetic stirrers, hotplate stirrers, orbital shakers, linear shakers, rocking shakers, three-dimensional shakers, vortex mixers, tube rollers, rotating mixers, microplate shakers and other laboratory mixing systems.
What is the difference between a mixer, roller and shaker?
A mixer generally combines samples through stirring, rotation or vortex movement. A roller continuously rolls tubes or bottles, while a shaker moves samples using orbital, linear, rocking or three-dimensional motion.
Which equipment is suitable for mixing samples in test tubes?
The suitable system depends on the required intensity. Vortex mixers are commonly selected for rapid tube mixing, while tube rollers and rotators are used for continuous or gentle mixing.
What is the difference between an orbital shaker and a linear shaker?
An orbital shaker moves the platform in a circular pattern, while a linear shaker produces a straight back-and-forth movement. The correct choice depends on the sample, container and laboratory method.
Can different flasks or containers be used on the same shaker?
Depending on the selected configuration, different platforms, racks, clamps or holders may be used to support flasks, bottles, tubes, microplates and other containers.
Are multi-position mixing systems available?
Yes. The AELAB range includes systems designed to mix or stir multiple samples simultaneously. The available capacity depends on the selected equipment type and configuration.
