Centrifuge + Vortex CVP-2 for Plates
CVP-2 is a fully automatic centrifuge for reproducing sms–algorithm (Spin-Mix-Spin) for two PCR plates at the same time, thus saving time considerably. The centrifuge's innovative features result in significant time savings.
The CVP-2 is especially suited for performing PCR and DNA analyses.

The patented Spin-Mix-Spin technology is designed for spinning microreagents at the bottom of the tube. This is followed by mixing and rotating the reagents against the tube walls and their lids (second spinning process).
This repetitive cycle, designed to reduce errors during sample preparation for PCR analysis, is called the "SMS algorithm".
The process can be observed through the transparent inspection window in the lid.
Four mixing processes in one centrifuge
- Centrifuge - Max. RCF: 245 × g (1500 rpm)
- Vortex (300–1200 rpm; Vortexing regulation timer 0–60 sec)
- Centrifuge/Vortex
- SMS-cycle for realization of the “SMS–algorithm”
