Mini Vortex Mixer LACHOI 3500rpm Touch Function 4.5mm Orbital 50ml

Description

Product Overview

The Mini Vortex Mixer by LACHOI is engineered for laboratory professionals who need reliable, high‑speed mixing in a compact footprint. Featuring a brushless DC motor capable of 3500 rpm, the device creates a rapid 4.5 mm orbital motion that efficiently blends liquids, powders, and semi‑solid materials. The mixer’s metal base provides a rigid foundation, while flexible anti‑vibration foot pads absorb residual motion, ensuring the unit remains steady on any work surface. Its dimensions—4.3 × 4.3 × 3 inches—and weight of 1.54 lb make it portable enough for field work yet robust enough for demanding bench use.

Constructed from high‑quality silicone for the touch‑activated pad, the mixer offers a corrosion‑resistant surface that is easy to clean and maintain. The device operates without the need for external cooling fans, thanks to its efficient brushless motor design, which reduces heat buildup and extends service life. Power is supplied via a standard AC adapter, and the unit can be activated with a simple press on the silicone pad; it stops automatically when the sample container is lifted, preventing over‑mixing and conserving energy.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the Mini Vortex Mixer excels in a wide range of laboratory and creative environments. In research labs, it quickly homogenizes test tube samples, ensuring consistent results for chemical analyses, microbiology cultures, and pharmaceutical formulations. In educational settings, the mixer provides students with a hands‑on tool for learning basic mixing techniques without the risk of splashing or sample loss.

Artists and hobbyists benefit from the mixer’s ability to blend acrylic paints, inks, and nail‑polish pigments, delivering smooth, uniform colors for fine‑detail work. Cosmetic formulators can use the device to combine eyelash adhesive components or gel‑based nail polish bases, achieving a stable emulsion in seconds. The 50 ml capacity accommodates most standard laboratory containers, while the low start force makes it safe for delicate glassware.

For field technicians, the compact size and lightweight construction allow the mixer to be transported in a tool bag or case, enabling on‑site sample preparation in remote locations. The touch‑activated control eliminates the need for additional switches or buttons, simplifying operation in environments where gloves are worn.

FAQ

What types of containers can I use with this vortex mixer?

The mixer works with standard test tubes, microcentrifuge tubes, small beakers, and any container that fits within the 4.5 mm orbital radius and can hold up to 50 ml of liquid. Ensure the container has a secure lid to prevent overflow.

Is the touch‑activated pad safe for use with chemical samples?

Yes. The silicone pad is chemically resistant and easy to clean. Wipe it with a mild solvent after each use to remove residues and maintain optimal performance.

Can I operate the mixer continuously for long periods?

The device is designed for intermittent use. For extended mixing sessions, allow the motor to rest for a few minutes after every 10‑15 minutes of operation to prevent overheating.

What power source does the mixer require?

The mixer uses a standard AC adapter (110‑240 V) supplied with the unit. No batteries are needed, and the power consumption is low due to the efficient brushless motor.

How do I troubleshoot a motor that does not start?

First, verify that the power cable is securely connected and the outlet is functional. Check the silicone pad for debris that might prevent contact. If the issue persists, contact LACHOI technical support for further assistance.
