Description
Shaking sleeves for butyrometers (3 butyrometers) are laboratory accessories made for secure handling and simultaneous agitation of butyrometer tubes in dairy fat determination and related analytical workflows. Fabricated from white polypropylene (PP), each sleeve accepts a butyrometer individually so that the glass body is supported while the stopper is held firmly during shaking. This arrangement enables controlled mixing of sample and reagents and helps reduce slippage or leakage at the stopper during the critical shaking step of classical butyrometric methods. The three-butyrometer format is practical for routine Gerber-type series work on quality-control benches where several determinations run in parallel. Supplied as one piece from manufacturer Aerne Analytic, the white PP construction is robust, easy to clean, and suited to repeated use in food and dairy laboratories. By keeping stoppers under control while multiple tubes are agitated together, these sleeves improve ergonomics and process consistency without requiring specialised equipment beyond standard butyrometers and stoppers. They integrate readily into existing lab glassware setups for traditional fat analysis.
This article is part of Shakers, rockers & rotators, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about Shaking shells for Butyrometers (for 3 Butyrometers)
What is this article?
Shaking shells for Butyrometers (for 3 Butyrometers) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Aerne Analytic 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.
