Mixing within deep well plates or small diameter vials is very difficult and requires an understanding of the physics involved in causing fluid motion in long narrow tubes.

The USC Vibroturbulator machines are high throughput vertical shakers that will rapidly mix the contents of wells in deep microplates or in long narrow tubes and vials. Liquids of differing specific gravities may be blended as well as powders rapidly dispersed in these deep tubes. No other shaker offers the high acceleration forces needed for this application. These high acceleration forces are the result of several high endurance leaf springs mounted horizontally attached to a magnetically driven armature at 50 or 60 cycles per second. There are no rubbing or wearing parts which results in very long life. We have not had a single return for service of these shakers during the past 12 years they have been sold.
Our standard models will mix the contents of 8 deep well plates in a matter of seconds.
Using 96 well plates provides 768 samples at once. Using 384 well plates yields 3072 samples at one time!
