Orbis Compact and Orbis Plus Microplate
and Tube Shakers
The Orbis shaker is a compact choice of microplate shaker for any
test environment. With a footprint, marginally larger than that of
the microplate it shakes, the Orbis offers the most economical and
advanced solution for your shaking applications, as well as being
competitively priced. The counter-balanced orbital movement guarantees
a stable, quiet and long life operation. The Orbis shaker can be
operated as a stand alone unit or alternatively, be easily integrated
into a robotic system, with a remote on/off control.
