Rocker, 3D

Manufacturer: BT Lab Systems

Description

The Rocker 3D from BT Lab Systems is a laboratory instrument designed for gentle mixing or agitation of samples in vessels such as flasks, bottles, or trays. Unlike standard orbital shakers, a 3D rocker typically provides a multi-directional, rocking motion that is less vigorous, making it suitable for applications where shear stress must be minimized. This type of motion is often used for washing blots or membranes, mixing sensitive cell cultures, staining procedures, or hybridizations. The unit likely features an adjustable speed control to vary the intensity of the rocking action and a timer for automated operation. Its compact platform is engineered to hold containers securely during the rocking cycle, promoting consistent and thorough fluid movement without vortex formation.
