200,000g would probably mean Ti rotors and an armour plate centrifuge chamber. If you really want that scale of speed and can manage with small volumes ie ~100uL consider using compressed air instead (a la Beckman airfuge). Only one moving part in the fuge, and you can hit 500,000g. Still going to need a Ti rotor and armour plate though...

im going to be working on cathals dremelfuge. ive found a US company
called Portescap who manufacture very high RPM brushless motors that
can hit in excess of 70,000 RPM or 200,000 G .
My main concern is whether the material in 3D printing can really deal
with those kind of forces.
The balance must be that the thing is light enough to not cause the
motor to lower its RPM but be stable enough to not cause eppendorf
bullets :-s
thoughts anyone....i'll be running FEA analysis on selection of
polymers in the next week.
