Product Description

VM1 Vortex Mixer – Australian Made

The VM1 Vortex Mixer is a robust and user-friendly single-tube vortex mixer, designed and manufactured in Australia for dependable performance across a wide range of laboratory applications. Ideal for test tubes up to 28 mm in diameter, this versatile mixer delivers consistent results with minimal noise and vibration.

The VM1 offers two operating modes:

  • Automatic Mode: Continuous operation for extended mixing tasks.

  • Manual Mode: Activated by downward pressure when the tube is placed in the mixing cup—perfect for quick, hands-on mixing.

A variable speed control allows you to adjust mixing intensity, from gentle agitation to vigorous vortexing. Additionally, the mixing action can be fine-tuned by altering the angle and pressure applied to the tube. The counterbalanced drive system ensures smooth and quiet operation, even at higher speeds.
