What causes noise in a centrifuge: One reason is an uneven floor
Cause of noise: Issues with the machinery itself； Air flow.
The centrifuge is not placed level, and the shock absorption system is damaged； Uneven feeding, and the drum is eroded by the material over time ； The friction areas have not been lubricated with the appropriate lubricant ； Clogged outlet, etc
Apart from normal wind noise, common causes of noise in centrifuges are damaged bearings or friction, which result in loud sounds
If there is significant vibration, it’s due to uneven feeding; usually it’s caused by a damaged bearing. Check whether it’s the spindle or the motor
