Centrifuges
A centrifuge is a device that spins containers at high speeds to separate substances based on their density. In simple terms, it uses centrifugal force to push heavier materials to the outside of a spinning container while lighter materials stay closer to the center. Centrifuges are commonly used in laboratories for separating blood components, in the food industry to separate cream from milk, and in industrial processes for purifying substances. They come in various sizes, from small tabletop models to large industrial machines, and are essential tools in scientific and medical applications.
