Lab Companion SKC-7075 Orbital Shaker with 0.75" Stroke and PID Speed Control

The Lab Companion SKC-7075 Orbital Shaker is a benchtop orbital shaker engineered for precise shaking applications in biotechnology, molecular biology, and clinical diagnostics laboratories. It features a microprocessor-based PID speed control system ensuring constant shaking speed with minimal deviation, critical in sensitive processes like gene editing and cell culture mixing.

Key technical features include:

• Shaking speed up to 500 rpm with a 0.75-inch (19 mm) orbital diameter stroke, suitable for consistent agitation in live-cell imaging and synthetic biology workflows.
• Ideal DD (Direct Drive) brushless motor combined with a triple cam system that delivers high torque under heavy load conditions with reduced noise and maintenance requirements.
• Smooth acceleration and deceleration control prevents chemical spills and sample disturbance, essential for stable bioprocessing operations and delicate sample handling.
• Low-profile design (12 cm platform height) reduces vibration and sliding, improving operational safety and precision in fluorescence analysis and molecular diagnostics research.
• Intelligent ‘best effort run’ function, automatically adjusts shaking speed under excessive workload such as unbalanced samples or external vibrations, preserving consistent performance during critical experiments.
• User-friendly control panel equipped with a bright VFD display and durable membrane touch switches for precise programming and repetitive task automation, beneficial in biomanufacturing pipelines.
• Compatible with a variety of slide-type universal platforms and accessories (e.g., rubber mats, spring wire racks, weight increasers) enhancing flexibility for different vessel types and sample sizes during bioprocess development and cell imaging protocols.

The SKC-7075 is widely used in biotechnology research, molecular cloning workflows, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, meeting environmental requirements of 5–40°C temperature and up to 80% relative humidity. Its over-current protection and shaking speed deviation alarm features ensure operational safety in demanding laboratory environments.

Designed for researchers and laboratory professionals requiring reliable and robust orbital shaking capabilities, this shaker supports workflows in biomedical engineering, synthetic biology experimentation, and clinical diagnostic assay preparation.
