Edmund Buhler TiMix 2 Compact Microplate Shaker
€1.832,00 excl. VAT
The TiMix 2 is an orbital shaker from Edmund Buhler built specifically for microplates. It suits labs mixing small sample volumes in a standard plate format. Its platform, sized for 4 microplates, gives an exact orbital motion suited to even mixing without splashing. Speed runs stepless from 100 to 1400 rpm, over a short 3 mm stroke. A programmable timer from 0 to 120 minutes, or continuous operation, covers most laboratory protocols. With a footprint of 220 x 410 x 110 mm and a weight of 8.5 kg, the TiMix 2 takes up little bench space. An optional flat platform also accepts vessels other than microplates.
Edmund Buhler TiMix 2 Compact Microplate Shaker
An orbital shaker built for microplates
The Edmund Buhler TiMix 2 is a compact orbital shaker designed specifically for microplate work and small sample volumes.
Its platform is fitted with holders for 4 standard-format microplates (deepwell or standard plates).
Exact orbital motion and high speed
The exact orbital motion and short 3 mm stroke support even mixing without splashing out of the wells, even at high speed.
Speed runs stepless from 100 to 1400 rpm, covering both gentle mixing protocols and fast ones.
Timer and operating conditions
The programmable timer from 0 to 120 minutes, or continuous operation, fits most laboratory protocols.
- 4 microplates per cycle, deepwell or standard format
- Ambient operating temperature from 5°C to 50°C
- Power supply of 230 V or 115 V, 50/60 Hz, to be specified at order
A compact bench format
With a footprint of 220 x 410 x 110 mm and a weight of 8.5 kg, the TiMix 2 takes up little bench space while covering 4 microplates per cycle.
Ideal Applications
The Edmund Buhler TiMix 2 suits the following applications.
- Mixing and incubation of microplates (ELISA, screening)
- Small sample volumes in plate format
- Molecular biology and diagnostic laboratories
- Bench positions with limited space
- Protocols requiring high, stable speed
Choose the TiMix 2 when:
- You mostly work with microplates
- You need high speed, up to 1400 rpm
- Your bench space is limited
- You want an exact orbital motion, without splashing
- You process up to 4 microplates per cycle
Buhler Value Proposition
The TiMix 2 combines an exact orbital motion, high speed, and a compact format, for a dedicated bench microplate shaker.
Edmund Buhler has manufactured laboratory shakers in Germany since 1880 and remains a family-owned company.
