BenchMate Microplate Shaker (SPM): Precision Mixing, Built to Last

Tired of microplate shakers that promise high performance but deliver inconsistent results and frequent breakdowns? Many shakers on the market cut corners, using low-grade components and weak motors that struggle with extended use. This leads to frustrating maintenance, unreliable mixing, and compromised sample integrity, making it difficult to achieve accurate, repeatable scientific data.

The Oxford Lab Products SPM Microplate Shaker is engineered to overcome these common challenges. Designed for the demands of modern laboratories, the SPM combines robust construction with intelligent features to ensure superior mixing performance and unparalleled longevity.

Key Innovations for Reliable Results:

• Powerful Brushless DC Motor: At the heart of the SPM is a state-of-the-art brushless DC motor. This advanced motor technology provides quiet, powerful, and consistent orbital motion without the wear and tear associated with traditional brushed motors. The result? Years of maintenance-free operation and smooth, reliable performance, even under continuous use.
• Precision Microprocessor Control: Achieve exact and reproducible experimental conditions. The integrated microprocessor allows for precise setting and monitoring of speed (from 300 to 1800 rpm) and time (1 to 99 minutes, plus continuous infinity mode). This granular control is crucial for applications requiring specific mixing parameters and ensures consistency across all your experiments.
• Inbuilt Counterbalance System: Say goodbye to unwanted vibrations. The SPM features an intelligent internal counterbalance mechanism that ensures stable, vibration-free operation at all speeds. This not only protects your samples but also prevents unnecessary wear on the instrument and reduces noise in the lab environment.
• Compact & Versatile Design: Bench space is always at a premium. The SPM boasts a compact footprint (127 x 86 x 85 mm) that maximizes your valuable workspace. Its robust design also allows for safe and effective use inside cold rooms and incubators at temperatures up to 40°C, expanding its utility across diverse laboratory settings.
• User-Friendly Interface with Digital Display: Operating the SPM is intuitive and straightforward. The clear digital display provides real-time feedback on speed, time, and operational status, allowing for easy monitoring and adjustments.
• Effortless Microplate Handling: The innovative turn-down toggle mechanism simplifies the loading and removal of microplates, minimizing spills and reducing sample loss. Furthermore, the clamp-tool-free design allows for quick and effortless changes between different microplate types, saving you valuable time.
• Optimal Orbital Diameter: A 2mm orbital diameter ensures thorough and uniform mixing across all wells, guaranteeing consistent experimental conditions and reliable results for various assays, cell cultures, and biochemical reactions.
• Comprehensive Attachment Options: The SPM comes standard with two sets of interchangeable clamps, accommodating different types of standard microplates. An additional attachment for 20 x 1.5 / 2.0 ml micro tubes is also included, further enhancing its versatility.
• Optional USB Connectivity: For demanding laboratory environments requiring enhanced control and data management, an optional USB remote control is available. This feature enables data logging, program storage, and automated operation, facilitating seamless integration into automated workflows and ensuring compliance with stringent documentation requirements.
