Mini plate Centrifuge

Description

Professional Mini Plate Centrifuge (Microplate Spinner)

The Professional Mini Plate Centrifuge is an ultra-compact, high-speed laboratory spinner designed specifically for the rapid sedimentation of droplets and condensation in PCR microplates. Crucial for molecular biology, genomics, and clinical diagnostic setups, this vertical-load spinner ensures that samples are completely driven to the bottom of well wells prior to thermal cycling, significantly improving the accuracy and reproducibility of downstream assays like qPCR and next-generation sequencing setup.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Instant Spin and Quick-Release Braking

Engineered for rapid laboratory throughput, this microplate centrifuge features a simple press-to-start action. It reaches its maximum operational speed within seconds and utilizes an advanced electronic braking system to bring the rotor to a complete, smooth stop in under three seconds, minimizing processing time between steps.

2. Smooth, Quiet, and Maintenance-Free Operation

Powered by a premium brushless DC motor, the drive mechanism operates with exceptionally low noise emissions ($\le 55\text{ dB}$). The vibration-dampening chassis keeps the unit rock-steady on crowded laboratory benchtops without shifting, extending the functional life of the internal components.

3. Open-Slot Basket Rotor (Without Dividers)

Unlike traditional multi-piece rotors that rely on clumsy internal spacers or removable partitions, this centrifuge features a streamlined, swing-out basket design without internal dividers or rigid center slots. This open-layout configuration allows users to slide standard 96-well microplates, 384-well plates, skirted, semi-skirted, or non-skirted PCR plates directly into the carrier without binding or hassle.

4. Compact Footprint & Clear Safety Lid

With an ultra-small physical footprint, this mini spinner fits comfortably inside biological safety cabinets, laminar flow hoods, or tight bench spaces. The transparent, heavy-duty safety lid allows visual confirmation of rotor stop while an electronic safety switch prevents operation if the lid is opened.

Ideal Applications

• PCR & qPCR Optimization: Spinning down master mixes and templates before thermal cycling to eliminate wall-droplet variance and air bubbles.

• Genomics & Sequencing Facilities: Preparing high-throughput plate assays for Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) prep or microarray drops.

• High-Throughput Screening: Pre-spinning enzyme assays, ELISA plates, and cell cultures during multi-channel pipetting processes.

• Clinical Molecular Diagnostics: Ensuring precise droplet consolidation in automated diagnostic workflow paths.
