Launch of Further Hei-SHAKE Core Models: Modern Platform Shakers with Patented Drive Concept for Maximum Precision and Reliable Results

Samples are taken, prepared, and mixed in solutions—this is how a wide variety of processes are initiated. Each step requires the highest precision and reliability in order to obtain tangible results from initial findings. With this in mind, Heidolph introduces the new members of the Hei-SHAKE series: devices that set the pace of scientific progress with perfectly controlled movement and mixing.

NEW: Hei-SHAKE Wave Core - ideal for blood samples and sensitive biological samples. It provides uniform, three-dimensional motion to ensure homogeneous mixing. Available in 5° and 10° angles.

NEW: Hei-SHAKE Rock Core provides stable and reproducible movement across plates and membranes for hybridization, staining, or blotting processes, ensuring uniform wetting and reliable test results. Available in 5° and 10° angles.

COMING SOON: Hei-SHAKE Reciprocating Core ensures thorough and reliable processing of samples that require linear shaking. With a stroke of 36 mm and a wide speed range from 1 to 300 rpm, this laboratory shaker is ideal for demanding mixing tasks, combining powerful performance with precise control for reproducible results.

The new shakers of the modern Hei-SHAKE series offer many possibilities: They can be flexibly configured with a platform 1000 or a platform 2000. An upgrade to the 2000 platform is possible at any time. The platform 2000 increases the usable surface of the laboratory shaker by 71.5%. Excellent for processing larger or many small vessels - either on one or several levels. In addition, they can be equipped with numerous different accessories, as there are countless types of vessels (tubes, vials, Eppis, Falcons, flasks, cell bags, etc.)

With these new platform shakers, Heidolph not only presents modernized, robust, and user-friendly models that are versatile and powerful for a wide range of applications, but also a completely newly developed drive system..

Efficient And Patented – The Drive Concept Behind Our New Laboratory Shakers

The movement of the shaking platform of a laboratory shaker is generated by various motor technologies. The movement pattern varies depending on the device - from orbital (circular) to vibrating, reciprocating (back and forth) to tumbling or rocking. Our new Hei-SHAKE shaker series sets new standards in this area: thanks to an innovative, patented drive concept, it combines maximum performance with progress and sustainability. 

A Motor Tailored to Your Requirements

At the heart of the Hei-SHAKE series is a specially developed motor that offers the advantages and functionality of a server motor, providing maximum precision, control, and efficiency. It enables finely adjustable control while continuously monitoring speed and position, eliminating the need for calibration. 

The motor responds extremely quickly to control commands and can change its direction of rotation in a very short time - ideal for applications with changing requirements. Despite its compact design, it delivers high torque and constant performance - perfectly suited for the limited installation space in laboratory shakers. 

The motor also scores points for energy efficiency when idling it only consumes power when actively regulated. Precise control and integrated protection mechanisms guarantee longevity and operational reliability - even in demanding continuous applications. 

Thanks to load-dependent optimized power consumption, the system is particularly energy-efficient: it only uses as much energy as is actually needed, resulting in high efficiency, low self-heating, and minimal speed fluctuations, comparable to the precision of an industrial robot.

Customer Feedback
"We were particularly impressed by the significantly lower heat generation of the new motors.

"Thanks to the wide speed range of our new orbital shaker, we can adjust the speed very finely. It is particularly advantageous that we often only need 5-10 rpm for our applications - and the samples no longer fly away! “
