Hello
We have two hand operated centrifuges. One is quite old and apparently useless. We have a newer one (although I'm not sure how old it is), a Shinco brand and we've had complaints that it doesn't attach to the bench properly and the tubes come out. It has plastic tubes which I believe the glass ones then fit into. I've been asked to replace it. It seems to mostly get used for soil separation.

I've looked at new manually operated centrifuges but they look exactly like the one we have. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi There

We have here an little electirc centrifuge. The brand is Qik Spin pwrsonal Interchangable microcentrifuge. It seems to work very well.
Model no QS7000 and its made in Australia also. Hope this is of help to you.
