Advanced Orbital Incubator Shaker: Precision in Laboratory Shaking and Incubation

The Orbital Incubator Shaker is an indispensable tool for any modern laboratory focused on microbiological, biochemical, or molecular research. With over two decades of experience, our company has specialized in manufacturing high-quality Orbital Incubator Shakers that meet the rigorous demands of researchers and clinicians alike. Our commitment to quality is evident in every unit we produce, which has earned us a reputation for providing reliable, long-lasting equipment used in hospitals, research institutes, and laboratories across India and around the world.

Robust Construction for Reliable Performance

At the core of our Orbital Incubator Shaker's design is a double-walled construction that ensures both thermal efficiency and durability. The outer body of the incubator is made from thick PCRC sheets that are elegantly powder-coated to resist corrosion and wear. The inner chamber is constructed from heavy gauge SS-304 grade stainless steel, a material known for its resistance to rust and chemical corrosion. This makes our shakers ideal for maintaining sterility and integrity in sensitive laboratory environments.

Between these two layers, we have incorporated high-grade mineral glass wool insulation. This material is crucial in minimizing heat loss, thus ensuring that the temperature within the chamber remains stable and uniform, a critical requirement for the accurate replication of experiments. The thermal efficiency provided by this design reduces energy consumption and allows the incubator to maintain consistent temperature conditions for extended periods.

Thoughtful Design for Easy Operation

Our incubator shakers are equipped with two doors to provide both security and ease of observation. The inner door is made from thick plexiglass or float glass, which allows researchers to view specimens without opening the chamber and disturbing the controlled environment inside. This door also features a magnetic door closer that ensures a tight seal, maintaining the internal temperature and preventing any potential contamination. The outer door is constructed from a mild steel sheet lined with stainless steel on the inside, providing an additional layer of protection and durability. This door is also equipped with a lock-and-key arrangement for added security, ensuring that only authorized personnel can access the samples inside.

For ease of movement within the laboratory, the unit is mounted on a sturdy steel frame equipped with castor wheels. This mobility feature allows researchers to relocate the incubator shaker as needed, without straining themselves or risking damage to the equipment. Inside the chamber, two or three stainless steel shelves are provided, depending on the model. These shelves are adjustable, allowing users to customize the internal layout to accommodate various types of flasks, petri dishes, or other labware.

Superior Temperature Control and Distribution

Temperature control is a critical aspect of any incubator shaker, and our units excel in this area. The back of the chamber is triple-walled and features two air circulation fans. These fans ensure that the temperature is evenly distributed throughout the chamber, eliminating hotspots and ensuring that all samples are incubated under identical conditions.

The heating system in our incubators uses an indirect method, employing air heaters made from high-grade Kanthal A-1 wires. These heaters are known for their durability and efficiency, providing consistent heat that is evenly distributed by the motor fans. This design not only ensures excellent temperature sensitivity but also extends the life of the heating elements, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.

For cooling, we have integrated an energy-efficient unit that uses ISI-marked, high-end CFC-free compressors from renowned brands like Kirloskar and Tecumseh. These compressors conform to the latest international standards and guidelines, ensuring that our incubators are environmentally friendly while still providing the necessary cooling to incubate specimens at lower room temperatures.

Precision Shaking Mechanism

The shaking system in our Orbital Incubator Shaker is designed to be both efficient and reliable. It utilizes an orbital shaking movement powered by a heavy-duty DC motor. This type of movement is ideal for applications that require gentle yet thorough mixing of liquids within flasks, petri dishes, or other containers.

Our incubator shakers offer variable shaking speeds ranging from 20 RPM to 225 RPM, making them versatile enough to handle a wide range of applications, from gentle mixing to more vigorous shaking. The speed is controlled by a DC drive, which is managed through a speed controller cum RPM indicator. This setup provides precise control over the shaking process, allowing researchers to replicate experimental conditions with high accuracy.

Advanced Digital Controls

The front panel of our incubator shakers is designed with the user in mind. It features on/off switches for the heating and cooling systems, as well as indicator lamps that provide at-a-glance information about the unit’s status. Temperature control is handled by a microprocessor-based digital controller that ensures accuracy to within ±0.1°C. The temperature uniformity within the chamber is maintained at ±0.5°C, thanks to the combination of our advanced insulation, air circulation, and heating/cooling systems.

The digital controller also features an LED display that provides clear, easy-to-read information about the current temperature and RPM settings. This interface allows researchers to quickly and easily set their desired conditions, ensuring that experiments can be conducted without delay.

Customizable and Versatile

One of the key strengths of our Orbital Incubator Shaker is its versatility. We understand that different research applications require different configurations, which is why we offer a range of models with varying flask holding capacities. Whether you need to shake 16 flasks of 250 ml each or 25 flasks of 500 ml each, we have a model that will meet your needs. Additionally, we offer optional features such as a 0-24 hour timer for day/night cycles, which can be added to any model for an additional cost.

Customization is also available for the size of the unit itself. We can tailor the dimensions of the incubator shaker to meet the specific requirements of your laboratory, ensuring that you get the exact setup you need for your research
