Benchmark Scientific B3D1020 MINIMIXER 3D NUTATING SHAKER, FIXED SPEED 10"X7.5" PLATFORM, DIMPLED MAT, 115V

The Benchmark B3D1020 is ideal for laboratories that require gentle, foam-free sample mixing for biological and molecular workflows. It is commonly used for gel staining and destaining, antibody staining, blot washing, blood sample mixing, centrifuge tube agitation, hybridization procedures, and routine sample preparation where smooth, consistent motion helps preserve sample integrity. Its tri-directional nutating motion promotes even mixing without aggressive agitation.

The B3D1020 is built for simple, repeatable operation using fixed-speed and fixed-angle motion, eliminating the need for setup adjustments between runs. It operates at approximately 24 rpm with a ±20° nutating tilt angle, helping laboratories maintain consistent mixing performance for routine applications and standardized protocols.

The Benchmark B3D1020 includes a 10.5" × 7.5" platform with an autoclavable dimpled mat that helps secure blood tubes, centrifuge tubes, conical tubes, and other common laboratory vessels during mixing. The textured mat reduces movement and helps keep samples stable throughout operation, making it practical for daily laboratory workflows.

Yes. The B3D1020 features a compact benchtop footprint while still offering more usable mixing space than many traditional mini nutating mixers. Its smaller platform size makes it a practical option for laboratories, biosafety cabinets, incubators, and crowded workstations where space is limited but dependable sample agitation is still needed.

Yes. The B3D1020 is equipped with a maintenance-free brushless motor, supports loads up to approximately 4 lbs (1.8 kg), and is designed for dependable day-to-day mixing in research, pharmaceutical, educational, and clinical laboratories. It is also safe for use in cold rooms and incubators, making it flexible for temperature-sensitive workflows.
