Heavy-Duty Mixers for Heightened Laboratory Performance

To guarantee mixing efficiency and productivity, it’s advisable to get your hands on a mixer that can deliver the right speed type and speed range that suit the activities you will be working on. Applications that do not really entail shifting mixing speeds while dissolving samples call for a fixed speed laboratory mixer like the BV101-R Vornado Red Cup Vortex Mixer from Benchmark Scientific. Made to disintegrate samples at a constant speed of 2800 RPM, the Benchmark Scientific BV101-R is ideal for pharmaceutical, food and beverage, electronics industries and more. Consider the VXMNAL Vortex Mixer from Ohaus, also an equally trusted brand, if you are looking for something with a higher maximum RPM compared to this one.

Simplified Laboratory Mixing Within Reach

A great deal of lab mixing equipment are available in the market but dont't confuse yourself on which one to purchase. If you focus on vigorously mixing, re-suspending, or agitating samples in microplates, test tubes, vials, or cylinders, then a vortex mixer would be the lab workhorse for you. An analog vortexer with an orbital mixing movement and a temperature range of 4°C-65°C, the BV101-R Vornado Red Cup Vortex Mixer from Benchmark Scientific brings in proper mixing for microbiology research centers.

  • Powerful vortexing for tubes up to 50ml

  • Inst-Touch™ pressure activated operation

  • "Mini Sized", less than 4 in. wide

  • Available in five color configurations


Powerful is the best word to describe this mini vortexer. With a 4mm orbit and fixed speed of 2800rpm, the Vornado instantly vortexes even the largest samples, including nearly full 50 ml tubes. Despite its powerful motor, the Vornado has a footprint of less than 4×4 inches, allowing it to fit on even the most crowded bench.

Insta-Touch operation means that the motor is automatically activated with slight pressure on the center cup head. Operation is smooth, quiet and efficient. When pressure is removed, operation immediately ceases.

The Vornado’s unique head design prevents liquids from entering the housing, prolonging motor life. The unit is available with five different cup head colors
