How do basket centrifuges dry clothes and fibrous materials?

Basket centrifuges, often referred to as centrifugal filters, dry clothes and fibrous materials by utilizing a perforated wall and a cylindrical tubular rotor.1

When the centrifuge spins, it applies a sustained centrifugal force—a force due to rotation that effectively substitutes for and exceeds the force of gravity. As the drum rotates, this force causes the liquid contained within the materials to be thrown outward. The liquid passes through the fine mesh screens of the perforated wall, while the solid materials, such as clothes or fibers, are retained by the screen. This process allows for the rapid removal of excess water and fluids from the materials.21
