Epi tube centrifuge

thingiverse

Model is probably scaled down by 10, so just move the period and scale is fine. This is an Eppendorf-Tube centrifuge with a spherical hinge cover and freely rotatable tubesockets. Alternatively, I designed a static tubeholder rotor that creates significantly less air drag and should enable higher speeds. The motor socket is now 26 x 29 mm in width and 42 mm in height. Note: This differs from the original picture. The rotor is mounted directly onto the motor and has stability support within the spherical cover and also on top of the motor socket. Additionally, it can be further stabilized with a screw through the cover into the rotor. The motor socket now features holes for applying cooling to the motor. There are four holes available to screw rubber feet onto the bottom of the main body. I printed the main body with 10% infill and the rotor at 100% infill. If you were to print all components with 100% infill, it would weigh approximately 1.2 kg. Please be aware of the potential dangers associated with centrifuge accidents. Feel free to share your thoughts and if you decide to print this design, post your prints and let me know how it's performing for you. I'm genuinely interested in hearing about your experience.
