Versatile orbital shaker applications, built for reliability

As laboratory processes evolve, performance requirements evolve with them. orbital shakers are designed to support a wide range of open-air, incubated, CO₂-resistant, and refrigerated applications, helping laboratories achieve consistent, repeatable results across diverse research and production environments.


Dependable drive mechanisms

A shaker’s drive system plays a critical role in long-term performance and reliability. While weight limits should always be considered, consistent operation over time, especially under demanding or unbalanced loads is essential for reliable results. Orbital shakers are engineered to support uniform motion and dependable performance across a wide range of applications as laboratory needs evolve.

Engineered for reliable, long-term performance

Solaris Orbital Shakers are designed to deliver consistent shaking performance throughout the life of the instrument. Drive system designs support uniform motion and durability, helping laboratories maintain reproducibility and minimize downtime during routine operation.

 

Many of our orbital shakers are backed with a 10-year drive system warranty. Contact a sales representative to find out more.


Versatile orbit, speed, and temperature ranges

Every application has an ideal orbit size, rotational speed, and temperature requirement for optimal and consistent results  Our orbital shakers feature precise performance controls that allow you to achieve the optimal specifications for your experiment. Durable drive systems offer choices of orbit sizes along with a wide range of temperature and speed capabilities.


Easy to use

Our shakers include ergonomic features like bright, intuitive controls and easy-to-reach and easy-to-clean surfaces that are appreciated by busy staff.  Quiet operation and a variety of sizes and configurations that help maximize capacity while saving valuable lab space also contribute to a better lab environment. 

Thermo Scientific shakers use an advanced user interface that includes touch screen controls (available on Solaris models). The full-color touchscreen display allows you to clearly view speed and runtimes concurrently, even from a distance. It also offers historical monitoring of alerts, alarms, and interaction logs to help provide greater security and reproducibility for your work. With Solaris Orbital Shakers, you can set, run and monitor vital statistics each with a touch. Graphing capabilities allow you to monitor the history of your run.
