PIKE Super ShakIR – High-Energy Lab Sample Grinder

The PIKE Super ShakIR is an essential tool for infrared spectroscopy sample preparation, ensuring that solids and powders are reduced to a uniform, sub-micron particle size. Consistent particle size is critical for achieving high-quality FTIR spectra, as it minimizes light scattering and eliminates the "Christiansen effect." This high-energy mill provides a superior alternative to manual mortar and pestle grinding, offering better reproducibility and significant time savings.The device features a robust reciprocating motion and programmable timers, allowing users to standardize their preparation protocols across different sample types. Whether preparing geological minerals, pharmaceutical powders, or polymer additives, the Super ShakIR delivers the mechanical force necessary for even the hardest materials. Its compact, safety-interlocked design makes it a reliable addition to any high-traffic spectroscopy lab
