Description
Shaking plate VKS (1-tier) is a base platform for laboratory shaker systems featuring a ground plate of 760 × 600 mm complete with plastic plate. It is required for fastening Combifix VKS attachment frames or the Universal tray VKS, forming the interface between the drive unit and upper accessories. The single-tier layout delivers a stable foundation for secure mounting of attachment assemblies during orbital or reciprocating motion. Measuring 760 mm in width and 600 mm in depth with a net weight of 10 kg, the plate provides a generous working area matched to standard laboratory trays and vessel holders. This component from manufacturer Bühler supports reliable load transfer and consistent performance in routine shaking applications. Laboratories specify it as the foundational element when building VKS-compatible multi-component setups for culture incubation, extraction, mixing, or sample preparation workflows that demand a rigid, precisely dimensioned base plate under continuous mechanical stress.
This article is part of Shakers, rockers & rotators, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about Shaking plate for VKS control (1-storey assembly)
What is this article?
Shaking plate for VKS control (1-storey assembly) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bühler for laboratory use. It sits in Shakers, rockers & rotators, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
A shaker, rocker or rotator moves a rack, a plate or a bottle so the contents keep moving without a stirrer bar. Orbital, reciprocating and rocking motions are different. The platform, the load and the speed range are the specification.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
