The '''Centrifuge''' is a singleblock machine that uses centrifugal force to separate mixtures into their components via weight. This function is not to be confused with the [[Electrolyzer]], which separates compounds into it's own components.[[File:Screenshot 3.jpg|thumb|269x269px|Basic LV centrifuge]][[File:Screenshot 4.jpg|thumb|365x365px|Centrifuge interface ]]There are 12 tiers of centrifuges in the game, running from [[LV]] through to [[UMV]]. The [[multiblock]] equivalent, the [[Industrial Centrifuge]], can go through to [[MAX]] voltage. Generally, the rarer or more complex the mixture, the higher the tier of centrifuge that is required. For example, the centrifuging of impure dusts only requires [[LV]], while the centrifuging of metal mixture dust into its various components requires [[EV]].
This machine sees common use in [[ore processing]], as it is usually the final step before a pure dust. It is also used to separate useful materials from planetary or normal stone dusts, although doing so takes a significant amount of time and power, and is not recommended in the early stages of the game. It is also used as part of the [[platline]].
