Satisfactory Miner Rates: Extraction by Purity

At 100% clock, Normal nodes yield 60/120/240 items/min with Miner Mk.1/Mk.2/Mk.3. Purity and clock multiply output; a Pure Mk.3 at 250% reaches 1,200 items/min and needs a Mk.6 belt. [1] [2]

Miner extraction rates, minimum belts and power

Purity multipliers: Impure ×0.5; Normal ×1; Pure ×2. Each purity cell shows items/min, then the minimum belt tier that carries it; every lower tier is exceeded. MW is the running draw per miner at that clock, shared across all purities. [1] [2]

All power figures assume the default ×1 Power Consumption Multiplier. [9]

These are per-node scenarios for solid resources. Actual purity availability is in node counts; keep the output moving to sustain the listed rate.

For custom targets, use the miner calculator. For how many Smelters or other processing machines the ore feeds, see production ratios; for clock and Power Shard mechanics, see overclocking and Somersloops.

Conveyor belt caps: when extraction exceeds transport

A miner has a single conveyor output. The belt leaving that output must carry the whole rate before a splitter can distribute it; splitting downstream cannot raise the input belt’s capacity. Equality fits: 1,200 items/min exactly fills Mk.6. [1] [2]

“Cases over cap” counts the 36 miner/purity/clock combinations above. The maximum clock column is only for a Pure Miner Mk.3, capped at the allowed 250%; it includes underclock settings.

Belt	Items/min	Pure Mk.3 max clock	Cases over cap
Mk.1	60	12.5%	31

Mk.4	480	100%	5
Mk.5	780	162.5%	2
Mk.6	1,200	250%	0

Using Mk.5? Set a Pure Mk.3 to at most 162.5% for its 780 items/min belt. Upgrade the outlet belt to Mk.6 for the full 1,200/min at 250%; every subsequent belt segment must also carry its assigned flow. [1]

Fluid rates are in m³/min. Oil and Resource Well cycles come from the export, converted from its internal fluid units; Water Extractor output comes from the cited Wiki. All power bases come from sat.json and use the same clock curve. [1] [4]

Oil Extractor — per Crude Oil node

Purity columns: m³/min. MW: per Oil Extractor. A Pure Oil node reaches the Mk.1 pipe’s 300 m³/min limit at 125% clock; higher clocks require a Mk.2 pipe on the outlet. [10]

How we computed this

Worked example: Miner Mk.3, Pure node, 250% clock. Calculate the extraction rate first, select the smallest sufficient belt, then calculate running power. [1]

Step 1 — Base rate: 1 item ÷ 0.25 seconds × 60 = 240 items/min on a Normal node.
Step 2 — Purity: 240 × 2 = 480 items/min on a Pure node at 100%.
Step 3 — Clock: 480 × (250 ÷ 100) = 1,200 items/min.
Step 4 — Belt: Mk.5 carries 780/min; Mk.6 carries 1,200/min. The minimum is Mk.6.
Step 5 — Power: 45 × 2.5^1.321929 ≈ 151.099 MW. Purity changes output, not this running-power calculation.

For any extractor: cycle amount ÷ cycle seconds × 60 × purity × (clock ÷ 100). Divide exported fluid cycle amounts by 1,000 to obtain m³. Water uses its Wiki baseline because its extraction cycle is absent from sat.json; the export’s Water self-recipe is a recipe placeholder, not an extraction cycle. Wells use satellite purity and the Pressurizer’s clock. [1] [4] [6]

Power reuses the overclocking guide’s formula with the export’s exponent, 1.321929. Multiply listed MW by your save’s Power Consumption Multiplier. [9] Values are rounded to 3 decimal places for display; belt comparisons use unrounded rates. The downloadable calculations retain full precision and the source SHA-256. [1]

Default-world node counts are manually transcribed from the Wiki; totals are computed by summing the three purity counts. [8] [6]

Satisfactory mining FAQ

How much does each miner produce by node purity?

At 100% clock, Miner Mk.1/Mk.2/Mk.3 yield 60/120/240 items/min on Normal nodes. Impure multiplies those rates by 0.5; Pure multiplies them by 2. These rates apply to solid resources; match the belt to the resulting output. [1] [2]

How does overclocking affect miner output and power?

Output scales linearly with clock: 250% gives 2.5 times the base rate. At the default ×1 power setting, power uses base MW × (clock ÷ 100)^1.321929. A Miner Mk.3 rises from 45 MW to about 151.099 MW at 250%, regardless of purity while running. [1] [3] [9]

Which belt does a pure Miner Mk.3 need?

At 100% clock it outputs 480 items/min and fits Mk.4. At 250% it outputs 1,200 items/min and needs Mk.6. Mk.5 caps delivery at 780/min, equivalent to 162.5% clock. A downstream splitter cannot bypass the miner’s single output belt. [1] [2]

Does water purity change Water Extractor output?

Water bodies have no node purity. A Water Extractor supplies 120 m³/min at 100% clock and 300 at 250%. Water from a Resource Well does use satellite purity; use the separate well table. [4] [5] [6]

Is Resource Well extraction measured per satellite or per well?

The rates are per satellite: 30/60/120 m³/min for Impure/Normal/Pure at 100%. Add the connected satellites for the total. Clock the Pressurizer to scale them together; its 150 MW base draw serves the whole well, while satellite Extractors need no power connection. [1] [6] [7]
