Product description

Thermo MaxQ 6000 incubator shaker offers orbital shaking (15-500 rpm) with temperature control (ambient +5°C to 80°C) for culture growth.

The Thermo Scientific MaxQ 6000 SHKE6000 is a _floor-style incubator shaker_ designed for precise temperature-controlled shaking incubation critical in biotechnology and molecular biology workflows. It integrates a _triple-eccentric drive_ system to deliver stable, consistent orbital agitation with a 0.75 inch (1.9 cm) orbit diameter, supporting shaking speeds from 15 to 500 rpm (max 300 rpm when stacked).

This incubator shaker excels in bacterial and yeast culture growth, protein expression, plasmid preparation, and media agitation — making it widely adopted in bioprocessing and synthetic biology research. The temperature range spans ambient +5°C up to 80°C, featuring a high-accuracy control (±0.1°C at 37°C) and uniformity (±0.5°C at 37°C), essential for reproducible cell culture incubation and biochemical assays.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Load capacity up to 35 lbs (15.9 kg) for multi-flask setups
  • Internal dimensions 21" x 20" x 26" suitable for diverse vessel formats
  • Timer adjustable from 0.1 min to 999 hours or continuous operation
  • Stainless steel interior chamber for durability and contamination control
  • Heat cutoff protection and alarms enhance operational safety
  • Stackable configuration optimizes laboratory footprint

Power requirements are 120V, 60Hz, 11 amps; overall unit dimensions are 27" x 33" x 42" with a weight of 330 lbs. The equipment supports critical molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing applications requiring controlled agitation and incubation.

This orbital incubator shaker is a vital tool in laboratories focused on cell imaging, live-cell incubation, and protein expression systems, offering robust, long-run shaking capabilities coupled with precise environmental control in biomedical engineering and biotechnology research settings.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
