Red Dot Award: Product Design 2015
Red Dot Design Award for Two IKA® Shakers "Trayster" tube rotator and "Roller digital" roller Shaker receive awards
(firmenpresse) - Staufen, March 24, 2015 — The "Trayster" tube rotator and the "Roller digital"
roller shaker by IKA® have received awards at the Red Dot Award: Product Design
2015. Both products were only brought to market in the previous year.
1994 participants from 56 different countries entered 4928 products for the
competition. These products were evaluated by the international jury based on
the criteria of level of innovation, functionality, technical quality, ergonomics,
durability, symbolic and emotional content, product peripheral equipment, clarity
of function and impact on the environment.
The IKA® overhead stirrers Eurostar 40 digital, along with the Eurostar 200 control,
the T 10 basic and T 25 digital homogenizers and the patented batch grinding
system UTTD control, already received a Red Dot Award in 2012. In 2013,
the LR 1000 laboratory reactor won the coveted award.
The Trayster rotates at 5 to 80 rpm and uses a vertical rotation motion. For this
reason, the Trayster is ideal for mixing biological samples such as blood gently
and effectively. Powder and liquid samples up to 50 ml in volume are separated
or mixed in Eppendorf or Greiner tubes. Up to three different attachments are
available to equip the Trayster for various applications.
The Roller digital mixes the contents of tubes with a gentle rocking and rolling
movement. Due to the easily removable rollers, the product is cleaned quickly if
samples spill. The roller is robust and suitable for continuous operation. A special
feature is its side panel which prevents the samples from sliding off. The
IKA roller shakers are available as "Roller 6" and "Roller 10" models, each in a
basic and digital version.
