Fisherbrand Nutating Mixer with Fixed 20° Tilt – Variable and Fixed Speed Options

The Fisherbrand Nutating Mixer delivers gentle, thorough 3D mixing by combining a 20° tilt angle with rotational nutating motion, ideal for sensitive mixing tasks in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing applications. Available in two configurations— a fixed-speed model operating at 24 rpm and a digital variable-speed model with a 2 to 60 rpm range—this benchtop mixer supports flexible laboratory workflows including live-cell imaging preparation and synthetic biology protocols.

Key technical features include:

• 20° nutating motion providing gentle mixing without harsh shaking, essential for suspending biological samples in tubes, flasks, and multiwell plates.
• Variable speed control on the digital model within ±1 rpm accuracy to optimize mixing conditions for gene editing and molecular cloning workflows.
• Integrated timer function from 1 minute up to 99 hours 59 minutes with continuous mode, including audible and visual end-of-run indicators for precise protocol timing.
• Platform dimensions of 12×11 inches with a dimpled rubber mat and securing elastic bands to prevent sample slippage, supporting diverse vessel types such as blood collection tubes and sample vials.
• Load capacity rated at 1.8 lb (0.8 kg), suitable for typical laboratory mixing needs in biotechnology and biomedical research.
• Electrical requirements of 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, and 1 A allow compatibility with global laboratory environments, including non-CO2 incubators and temperature-controlled rooms.

This nutating mixer is widely adopted in synthetic biology and clinical diagnostics labs for its ability to maintain sample integrity during suspension mixing. It is critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and research settings requiring consistent, reproducible mixing parameters. The robust platform and precise speed regulation make it an essential tool for molecular biology researchers performing live cell and fluorescence analyses.

Choose the appropriate model based on mixing speed and timer requirements to optimize protocols in biomanufacturing and biotechnology workflows.
