IKA : What equipment for mixing, dispersing, heating, evaporating and grinding in the laboratory?

IKA is a leading name in laboratory and process equipment. Active across academic research, pharmaceutical, chemical, agri-food and quality control, IKA provides reliable solutions for stirring, dispersing, evaporating, heating, temperature control and milling — from the lab bench to pilot scale.

Award-winning design, German precision and intuitive digital interfaces deliver safety, reproducibility and day-to-day performance.

Over 100 years of engineering dedicated to science

Founded in 1910 and headquartered in Staufen im Breisgau, Germany, IKA has established itself as a global leader in laboratory equipment. From “Janke & Kunkel” to IKA, the brand has built its reputation on robust, intuitive instruments — notably ULTRA-TURRAX technology, now a benchmark in high-shear homogenisation.

Through an international network of subsidiaries and service centres, IKA supports laboratories for the long term with continuous innovation, industrial-grade quality and strong application-focused support.

Expertise and Areas of Specialisation

IKA covers the essentials of sample preparation and process development:
Stirring and mixing: RCT hotplate stirrers, IKA Plate magnetic stirrers, EUROSTAR overhead stirrers for viscous media.

Dispersion and homogenisation: ULTRA-TURRAX ranges (T 18, T 25, T 50) for emulsification and particle size reduction.

Evaporation: RV 10 rotary evaporators, thermostatic baths and VACSTAR pumps for efficient evaporation and optimal solvent recovery.

Temperature control: ICC thermostats, circulators and HRC chillers for precise regulation.

Sample grinding and homogenisation: A 11, M 20, Tube Mill control and MultiDrive mills.

Measurement and control: ROTAVISC viscometers, PT1000 probes and USB/RS232 connectivity with labworldsoft software.

IKA equipment combines precision, longevity and safety (ceramic tops, integrated safety features, overload detection) to improve reproducibility and ease the transition from R&D to scale-up.
