iShak PS 10/20 Programmable Platform Shaker

Available with orbital or linear shaking motion and a maximum load capacity of 7.5 kg

The iShak PS 10/20 is a versatile programmable platform shaker designed for reliable laboratory mixing with loads up to 7.5 kg. It is available in two versions: orbital motion or linear reciprocating motion.

The range provides 10 mm or 20 mm movement, with operating speeds selected according to the movement specification. Its powerful brushless DC motor, microprocessor control and advanced programming functions make it suitable for routine laboratory shaking as well as complex multi-stage protocols.

Two available versions
Choose orbital motion for continuous circular sample circulation or linear motion for controlled back-and-forth agitation.

Orbital Version

The orbital version moves the platform through a continuous circular path, encouraging smooth circulation within flasks and vessels. It is particularly suitable for aeration, microbial culture, general flask mixing and applications requiring continuous multidirectional sample movement.

Linear Version

The linear version moves the platform backwards and forwards along a defined path. This controlled reciprocating action is well suited to extraction, washing, staining, destaining and applications requiring directional agitation.

Programmable Multi-Stage Operation

Up to six user-defined programmes can be stored, with each programme containing as many as nine individual stages. Different speed and time settings can be assigned to each stage, allowing complex shaking procedures to run automatically.

The loop function can repeat a complete programme cyclically, supporting extended or repetitive protocols without requiring continual operator intervention.

Typical Applications

Microbial and cell-culture growth
Mixing laboratory flasks, bottles and beakers
Extraction and dissolution procedures
Staining and destaining applications
Solubility and formulation studies
Sample washing and preparation
Environmental and water-testing laboratories
Food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic research
General laboratory and quality-control mixing

Platform attachment required
Vessel attachments are not supplied with the shaker and must be ordered separately. Clamp base plates do not include individual flask clamps unless specifically stated.

Configuration advice from Auckland Scientific
Please provide your vessel types, capacities, quantities and required mixing action. We can help select the appropriate orbital or linear version and the correct platform attachment.

Maximum load includes the selected attachment, vessels and samples. Images may show optional platforms, clamps or laboratory vessels that are not included. Specifications may be updated without notice.
