Dual tier platform on an orbital shaker: double capacity with no extra bench space

Increase capacity with an added platform tier

An added platform tier increases usable space on one orbital shaker. Therefore, you process more vessels per run. Moreover, you can often avoid buying a second shaker. At the same time, you avoid placing a unit on the floor, which reduces contamination risk. In short, you gain throughput with the same bench space. See shakers and mixers for laboratories for suitable options.

Improve scheduling in shared laboratories

In shared labs, planning often conflicts with turnaround time. Therefore, an added platform tier lets multiple projects run together. As a result, queues disappear and time is used more efficiently. Next, teams can move to the next task sooner. Moreover, universal clamp kits support multiple vessel formats. Explore shakers and mixers for laboratories for open air use cases.

Simple installation and safe operation

The platform tier is easy to install with a flathead screwdriver. Moreover, brackets and four screws are included. Therefore, switching configurations is straightforward. However, speed guidance matters when using two tiers. Keep shaking at or below 200 RPM. Additionally, consider service and maintenance for heavy daily use.

Platform sizes and MaxQ model compatibility

Choose the size based on model and application. For MaxQ 2000, 2506, and 2508, 11 x 13 inches and 18 x 18 inches are available. In addition, MaxQ 3000 supports 30 x 18 inches. For MaxQ 6000 stackable shakers, 18 x 18 inches is available. Therefore, you match capacity to a small footprint. Learn more via shakers and mixers for laboratories.
