What Is a Centrifuge? A centrifuge is a machine that uses centrifugal force to separate the contents of a sample based on their density. When the centrifuge spins, it creates a strong centrifugal force. Though separation would eventually happen naturally with Earth’s gravity, the centrifuge machine ... Read More

Defects and Control in the Heat Treatment Process Steel generally undergoes hot working and heat treatment to achieve higher strength and toughness or other special properties. However, if the heating temperature is too high, it can instead lead to the deterioration of the mechanical properties of ... Read More
