Used Mixers in Fujian, China

12

Overview

Laboratory mixers, shakers, and stirrers are benchtop or floor-standing machines used to blend, suspend, and homogenize liquids, slurries, and small solids for research, QA, and production. They range from simple magnetic stirrers and orbital shakers to heavy-duty overhead mixers with variable speed, torque control, and programmable profiles. Choose by sample volume, viscosity, containment needs, and control features for reproducible results.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used lab mixer?

Inspect motor condition, speed and torque control, power compatibility, seals and bearings, and any visible corrosion. Ask for service and calibration records, confirm available spare parts, and test with representative loads if possible.

How should a lab mixer be shipped safely?

Drain and clean the unit, immobilize moving parts, pack with vibration-resistant cushioning, and label fragile/electrical equipment. Use a carrier experienced with lab instruments and verify customs paperwork for international shipments.

What maintenance and calibration do mixers need?

Regularly clean wetted parts, check seals and couplings, lubricate bearings per manual, and verify speed/torque with calibrated instruments. Schedule periodic calibration for applications requiring traceability and replace worn parts promptly.
