Designed for complex lab workflows, this 5-station heated magnetic stirrer enables efficient parallel processing. Each station offers independent stirring and heating control—perfect for comparative testing, temperature gradients, or stepwise reactions. With smart operation and modular functionality, this multi-point magnetic stirrer helps researchers streamline tasks precisely and safely.
Multi-Station Control Platform – Efficient & Flexible Operation
- Big Stirring Surface: The 130×500mm integrated ceramic-coated aluminum plate offers a spacious working area. The LED digital display clearly shows the speed, temperature, and status of each station, with one-touch switching between synchronous or independent modes for easy operation.
- Corrosion-Resistant Top Plate: Coated with a highly chemical-resistant ceramic layer, the surface of the magnetic hotplate stirrer resists acids (e.g., HCl), bases (e.g., NaOH), and solvents (e.g., DMSO, ethanol), ensuring durability and effortless cleaning.
- Five Independent Stirring Points: Each station allows separate control of stirring speed and temperature. Run all at uniform settings (e.g., 60°C + 500 rpm) or set varied conditions (e.g., Station A: 50°C + 300 rpm for enzymatic reaction; Station B: 80°C + 800 rpm for rapid dissolution) — perfect for parallel experiments, process optimization, or temperature gradient tests.
- Large Volume Compatibility: Each station of the magnetic stirrer handles up to 1L, accommodating various lab vessels from 250mL beakers to 1000mL three-neck flasks (compatible stir bars required).
Precision Heating & Stable Stirring – Reliable Lab Performance
- Rapid Heating: Each station of this multi-position magnetic stirrer is equipped with a 250W heating element, supporting a temperature range from room temperature to 120°C, with fast heat-up and steady control — perfect for solution preparation, reaction incubation, and constant-temperature mixing.
- Stepless Speed Regulation: The 150~1600 rpm variable-speed control ensures precise mixing of liquids with differing viscosities — from gentle stirring for cell suspension cultures to high-speed dispersion for nanomaterials.
- Smart Safety Protection: Built-in over-temperature protection cuts off heating when limits are exceeded to prevent sample charring or device damage. The heating warning light flashes when the surface temperature exceeds 50°C or when dry-running occurs.
- Powerful Magnetic Coupling: Equipped with high-performance magnets delivering robust torque, ensuring the magnetic stir bar rotates stably without decoupling, even under challenging mixing conditions.
Applications
Magnetic stirrers are widely used in scientific and industrial settings such as university labs, chemical engineering, biopharmaceuticals, and clinical laboratories.

Q1: What is the working principle of a multi-position magnetic stirrer?
A1: A multi-position magnetic stirrer operates on the principle of magnetic coupling. A rotating magnetic field—usually generated by internal magnets or motors—drives magnetic stir bars placed inside the liquid container, causing them to spin and mix the solution. In multi-position models, this process is replicated across multiple stirring stations, allowing simultaneous mixing of several samples, which greatly improves laboratory efficiency and consistency in comparative experiments.
Q2: What speed should the magnetic stirrer be set to?
A2: The optimal magnetic stirring speed depends on the viscosity of the liquid, the size of the stir bar, and the type of experiment. For low-viscosity solutions or gentle mixing, speeds between 150–500 rpm are usually sufficient. For more vigorous stirring or high-viscosity samples, speeds may range from 1000 to 1600 rpm. Always start with a low speed and gradually increase to avoid stir bar decoupling or splashing. Precision speed control is key to ensuring reliable and reproducible results in laboratory applications.
Q3: Is a magnetic stirrer considered an instrument or equipment?
A3: A magnetic stirrer is typically categorized as laboratory equipment, although it is often referred to as a lab instrument due to its precision and application. Whether used as a single-position or multi-position stirrer, it plays a crucial role in liquid mixing, sample preparation, and chemical reaction control, making it an essential tool in laboratories across chemistry, biology, and pharmaceutical research.
Tips: How to extend the lifespan of your multi-position magnetic stirrer?
To maintain the performance and longevity of your multi-position magnetic stirrer, always place it on a stable, level surface and avoid overloading the stirring positions. Use appropriately sized magnetic stir bars for each vessel, and ensure good contact between the container and the stirrer plate. After use, allow the hotplate to cool before cleaning, and wipe the surface with a soft cloth—avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the ceramic-coated surface. Regular maintenance helps prevent overheating and keeps your lab's stirring equipment operating efficiently for years.
