TubeRoller Rocking Rollers, 5 and 10 roller models
Benchmark TubeRollers are designed for the gentle, thorough mixing of a variety of containers, including Vacutainers™, bottles, test tubes, centrifuge tubes, and roller bottles. Both models feature variable speed control (2-80 rpm), suitable for the broadest range of mixing applications.
As the roller mechanism rotates through each complete revolution, the right side of each roller is gently elevated about 0.5 in (13mm) and returns to the horizontal starting position. This additional, gentle up/down motion provides a “wave” effect and guarantees that the entire sample is subjected to complete, thorough mixing, end to end. This built-in tilt feature provides a level of homogeneous mixing uniformity that cannot be matched by any stationary roller apparatus.
From blood collection tubes to roller bottles, Benchmark TubeRollers are the ideal choice for research, clinical laboratories, and doctors’ offices.

Roto-Therm™ Incubated Rotator Series
Benchmark’s new Roto-Therm series of incubated rotating mixers provide a wide range of mixing capabilities. Suitable for an array of laboratory applications including resuspension, protein binding, nucleic acid purification, histochemistry, hybridization etc, the mixers include interchangeable tube holders for accomomodating all common tube sizes from 0.5ml to 50ml. The motion can be adjusted from vertical (end over end) mixing, to horizontal (rolling or hybridization style) mixing.
For applications requiring temperature control, the Roto-Therm series can be digitally programmed to maintain chamber temperatures of ambient +5°C to 60°C and include an “in-lab” calibration function for ensuring accurate temperature control.
The Roto-Therm is also available in a “Plus” configuration, providing the following additional features:Variable speed: 5 to 70rpm“Mix” function: Rotating in combination w/ oscillations (increased mixing)“Pause” function: Rotating with intermittent “stops” during rotation“Rock” function: Back and forth, gentle rocking motion (see-saw)
The Plus model also offer an additional rocking platform (11 x 7.7 cm), as well as a 96 x 0.2ml tube/strip/plate holder for mixing PCR vessels in the “Mix” (oscillating) mode.
