  2. Centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge

    Washing machines are designed to act as centrifuges to get rid of excess water in laundry loads. Centrifuges are used in the attraction Mission: SPACE, located at Epcot in Walt Disney World, which propels riders using a combination of a centrifuge and a motion simulator to simulate the feeling of going into space.

  3. Incubator (egg) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incubator_(egg)

    A modern egg incubator. An incubator is a device simulating avian incubation by keeping eggs warm at a particular temperature range and in the correct humidity with a turning mechanism to hatch them. The common names of the incubator in other terms include breeding / hatching machines or hatchers, setters, and egg breeding / equipment. [1]

    As of September 2014, eBay has acquired over 40 companies, the most expensive of which was the purchase of Skype, a Voice over Internet Protocol company, for US$2.6 billion in cash plus up to an additional US$1.5 billion if certain performance goals were met. [2] The majority of companies acquired by eBay are based in the United States.

  5. Laboratory centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_centrifuge

    A laboratory centrifuge is a piece of laboratory equipment, driven by a motor, which spins liquid samples at high speed. There are various types of centrifuges, depending on the size and the sample capacity.

  6. Peeler centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peeler_centrifuge

    [1] Peeler centrifuge operates on the principle of centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids by density difference. And high rotation speed provides high centrifugal force that allows the suspended solid in feed to settle on the inner surface of drum, also washing and washing processes at the same rotational speed and in same centrifuge vessel.

  7. Screen scroll centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_scroll_centrifuge

    Screen scroll centrifuge is a filtering centrifuge which separates solids and liquid from a solid-liquid mixture. This type of centrifuge is commonly used with a continuous process in which slurry containing both solid and liquid is continuously fed into and continuously discharged from the centrifuge. In a typical screen scroll centrifuge, the ...

  8. Ultracentrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultracentrifuge

    An ultracentrifuge is a centrifuge optimized for spinning a rotor at very high speeds, capable of generating acceleration as high as 1 000 000 g (approx. 9 800 km/s²). [1] There are two kinds of ultracentrifuges, the preparative and the analytical ultracentrifuge.

  9. Large diameter centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_diameter_centrifuge

    Large diameter centrifuges are used to understand the effect of hyper-gravity (gravitational strengths stronger than that of the Earth) on biological samples, including and not limiting to plants, organs, bacteria, and astronauts (Such as NASA's Human Performance Centrifuge) or non-biological samples to undertake experiments in the field of ...
