Edmund Buhler WS 10 Tilt Shaker for Laboratories

A slow, steady linear rocking motion

The Edmund Buhler WS 10 produces a linear tilting (rocking) motion at a fixed 5 degree angle, built for classic washing and gentle incubation applications.

This mode of agitation particularly suits Western blot membrane washing and protocols requiring steady rocking.

Stepless speed control

Speed adjusts steplessly from 1 to 23 rpm, matching the mixing amplitude to the protocol.

The fixed 5 degree tilt angle reflects the standard angle used across laboratory tilt shakers.

Platform and load capacity

The 340 x 340 mm platform holds a maximum load of 10 kg, with a programmable timer from 0 to 120 minutes or continuous operation.

• Power supply of 115-230 V, 50/60 Hz
• Ambient operating temperature from 5°C to 50°C
• Heat emission of approximately 3 W

Rack system shared with the TL 10

The WS 10 uses the same multi-tier rack system (0051 247) as the TL 10: 2 trays of 340 x 340 mm with rubber mats, at a height of 200 mm.

Additional trays of 340 x 340 mm (0051 502) or 340 x 500 mm (0051 413) allow the available surface to be expanded.

Ideal Applications

The Edmund Buhler WS 10 suits the following applications.

• Western blot membrane washing
• Gentle incubation requiring continuous rocking
• Linear mixing at a fixed angle
• Molecular biology and biochemistry laboratories
• Standard rocking protocols, without tilt adjustment

Choose the WS 10 when:

• Your protocol needs a fixed, known rocking angle (5 degrees)
• You carry out membrane washing or gentle incubation
• You do not need to adjust the tilt angle between protocols
• You want to add extra trays to the same rack over time
• Your sample load stays under 10 kg

Buhler Value Proposition

The WS 10 combines a steady rocking motion at a fixed angle with an expandable platform, for a simple and reliable shaker for daily use.

Edmund Buhler has manufactured laboratory shakers in Germany since 1880 and remains a family-owned company.
