CENTRIFUGAL MACHINE

an apparatus used in many different industries, chiefly for the extraction of moisture--to remove the syrup from sugar, to extract the honey from honeycomb, to dry yarn, cloth, etc. The process is, essentially, placing the substance or material in a perforated basket or case which is revolved with great rapidity, the result being that the moisture is expelled from the basket and caught in the receptacle enclosing it.
