IKA Lab Dancer Orbital Vortex Mixer for Laboratory Sample Preparation

The IKA Lab Dancer is a compact orbital vortex mixer designed for precise laboratory sample mixing and preparation. Featuring a 4.5 mm shaking stroke and a fixed speed of 2800 rpm, it facilitates efficient homogenization of small sample volumes up to 0.1 kg, including attachments. The mixer supports continuous operation with a permissible ON time of 100%, ensuring reliability during prolonged bioprocessing tasks. It is equipped with a touch-sensitive function for easy control, though it lacks speed and timer displays, reflecting its focus on straightforward mixing applications. Measuring 100 x 70 x 100 mm (WxHxD) and weighing just 0.776 kg, the unit is ideal for benchtop integration in molecular diagnostics, gene editing workflows, and synthetic biology research. Its orbital motion enables consistent vortex formation, essential for cell imaging sample preparation and biological homogenization in biotechnology and clinical diagnostics laboratories.
