The world's first 4K camera built into a centrifuge shows what foods and other substances look like as they are separated at 2,500 Gs.
, a former lab technician and professional photographer, wanted to film foods such as peanut butter, hot sauce, and honey, as they are separated in a centrifuge, in a bid to show the wider world what this scientific process looks like.
The parts for Mikkers’ custom centrifuge had to be gradually tested, making initial runs of 500 RPM, and then 1000 RPM. This process took Mikkers many months as designs were tweaked to solve tensile stress and compression that were affecting the 3D prints because of the high G forces. To make the camera and sample bucket, Mikkers combined the 5mm thin aluminum bucket holder with his own 3D printed bucket. The amalgamation means the bucket holds together and doesn’t succumb to the tensile stresses.
