Centrifuges (Benchtop, Refrigerated, Plate, Clinical)
Separating by density is one of the most common moves in a lab, and centrifuges make it fast and repeatable. Spinning samples at controlled speed pellets cells, clarifies lysates and layers gradients, and they range from small benchtop units to refrigerated floor machines. Buyers weigh the maximum speed and relative centrifugal force against the rotor capacity and the tube or plate formats they run. Both new and used benchtop, refrigerated, plate and clinical centrifuges appear here, with listings that describe speed, rotor options and temperature control. They form part of the wider Sample Preparation, Separation and Processing range. Contact the seller to confirm rotor availability and fit for your tubes and plates.

Centrifuge Types
Centrifuges divide by capacity, speed and whether they cool the chamber. The main formats suit different samples, volumes and temperature needs.
Benchtop microcentrifuges
Compact high speed units that spin microtubes for quick pelleting and clarification. They suit molecular biology work at small volumes on a crowded bench.
Refrigerated centrifuges
Cooled machines that hold samples cold during long or high speed spins. They protect proteins, cells and other labile material from heat damage.
Microplate centrifuges
Units built to spin plates for high throughput assay and PCR work. They collect liquid and remove bubbles across full plates in one run.
Clinical and general purpose centrifuges
Moderate speed machines that separate blood and routine samples. Swing out rotors give clean layering of serum and plasma.

Why Choose Machinery Masters
Verified Sellers Only
Every seller is verified before a single listing goes live. Machinery Masters also reviews listings for accuracy, so buyers can commit to high value machinery with confidence.
Global Reach
Listings come from sellers across Europe, North America, and beyond. That reach widens the options past any regional dealer network, and it is often the only way to find discontinued models in good condition.
Flexible Financing Options
Qualifying listings carry financing through partner providers. Terms are shown directly on eligible product pages, spreading the cost instead of draining working capital in one hit.
Direct Seller Contact
No broker sits between the buyer and the seller. Ask about service history, arrange inspections, and negotiate directly with the person who actually knows the machine.
Applications and Uses
These machines appear wherever a sample must be separated by density before the next step. These are their core uses.
Cell pelleting and harvest
Spinning down cells from culture to collect them or clear the supernatant. Controlled force pellets cells without damaging them.
Serum and plasma separation
Layering blood into serum, buffy coat and cells for clinical testing. Swing out rotors give clean, repeatable separation.
Nucleic acid preparation
Clarifying lysates and pelleting precipitates during DNA and RNA extraction. High speed microcentrifuges suit the small volumes involved.
Plate based assay processing
Collecting liquid and removing air bubbles from assay and PCR plates. Plate rotors handle full formats in a single spin.
Benefits from Machinery Masters
Sourcing a centrifuge here gives you range across formats and speeds, with clear detail on rotors and cooling.
01
Formats from microtube to floor standing
Benchtop, refrigerated, plate and clinical centrifuges line up in one place, letting you match capacity and speed precisely to your separations.
02
Refurbished centrifuges that stretch capital
A serviced centrifuge with an inspected drive and rotor performs like new for less, and the saving can fund an extra rotor or a service contract.
03
Rotor and cooling fit confirmed by the seller
You check the available rotors and temperature control before buying, which keeps the machine aligned with your tubes, plates and samples.
Frequently Asked Questions About Centrifuges (Benchtop, Refrigerated, Plate, Clinical)
Separations are defined by relative centrifugal force rather than speed alone, since force depends on both the speed and the rotor radius. Pelleting cells needs modest force, while pelleting fine precipitates or membranes needs much higher force. Check the maximum force the machine reaches with the rotor you would use. Give the seller your target force and sample type so they can confirm the machine reaches it.
The rotor and drive are the critical parts, so ask whether the rotor is within its service life and free of cracks or corrosion. Aluminium rotors have a limited number of runs and should carry a log. Listen for smooth running and check that the machine reaches and holds set speed. A recent service and a rotor with life remaining make for a sound purchase.
You need cooling whenever your samples contain heat sensitive material such as enzymes, proteins or live cells, because high speed spins generate heat. Long runs in particular can warm a chamber enough to damage labile targets. If your work is heat stable, an ambient machine is simpler and cheaper. Tell the seller what you spin so they can advise whether refrigeration is worthwhile.
The rotor and its adapters decide which tube sizes and plate formats a machine takes. A machine is only useful if the right rotor and buckets come with it or are available. Check which rotors the listing includes and whether adapters for your consumables exist. Ask the seller to confirm the rotor options so your tubes and plates fit.
Sellers on the marketplace are verified, and you deal with them directly with no middleman in between. You can ask for photos of the rotor, a service record and a video of the machine spinning up. That direct exchange lets you confirm the condition before you commit. Agree any inspection you want in advance.
