Abstract

An orbital shaker with a balancing device that automatically and passively compensates, without supply of external energy, forces and moments which are caused by imbalance and arise during operation, in particular as a result of a possible variable loading (mass, geometry of the containers, properties of the contents) and variable operating parameters (speed of rotation and shaking radius). The balancing device can be designed such that only the unbalance forces (static balancing) and/or the unbalance moments (dynamic balancing) are compensated.
